New cyber policy papers from the Scaling Trust project

The ‘Scaling Trust’ project is a UKRI Future Leaders’ Fellowship examining trust in the cyber security profession. As the initial period of funding comes to an end, CIM academics Matt Spencer and Daniele Pizio have published two policy papers that engage with current challenges in cyber security.

Assurance by Principle: Preparing for the next generation of technology assurance’ is a report by Matt Spencer, published through the Research Institute for Sociotechnical Cyber Security (RISCS). It provides a series of recommendations for moving technology assurance policy away from prescriptive standards, and towards the new ‘goal-based’ approach that has become influential in cyber policy.

Deperimeterising Zero Trust: Challenging metaphors in information security’ is a policy brief by Matt Spencer and Daniele Pizio, part of the University of Warwick’s Policy Briefing Series. It examines current challenges with the trend towards a ‘Zero Trust’ paradigm for information security, and draws conclusions aimed at industry, government and academia.

European Social Dialogues: Shaping EU Social Policy through Parental Leave Rights

The European Social Dialogue (ESD) has served as the platform for European social partners to negotiate parental leave policies at the European Union (EU) level since 1995.

The partners’ efforts to revise the regulations in 2015, in response to the European Commission’s broader approach toward European work–life balance policies, failed, however, and the reasons for and implications of this failure remain insufficiently explored.
