Cyber attacks are ubiquitous and scary, but most activities to prevent or live with insecure technologies are mundane. Learn about the MUNDANE ART OF CYBERSECURITY in @LauraKocksch and Torben Elgaard Jensen's new article. #CSCW2024 tinyurl.com/mssfrrun-cscw202…

On Fragile Cyber link.springer.com/chapter/10…
This month I am officially launching 🪁Fragile Computing🟦
The monograph is based on ethnographic research in critical infrastructures and mobilises concepts from #STS to understand cybersecurity beyond fixing
Get a sneak peek at the @Palgrave booth during #EASST4S24
Just published! In her #NewBook, Laura Kocksch argues that doing computer security means not striving for technical solutions, or individual awareness, but living with fragility.

So thankful to @RUSTlabBochum for their commentary on @TorbenElg and my project. In our ethnography of 30 SMEs, cybersecurity practices are fragile, mundane and enduring. Read the comment here: rustlab.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/c…

🥳Just published: Actor-Network Theory, an annotated bibliography, with Oxford University Press 🥳
For those w access, the official version is actually quite neat with links and easy reference export: oxfordbibliographies.com/dis…
For all others, here's a pdf: researchgate.net/publication…
Imagine an annotated bibliography of #ActorNetworkTheory scholarship. Useful? Impossible? Meaningless? Divisive? All may be true, but when asked, I decided to try to put something together. Managed to fit in 170 references. Out soon, post-print here: researchgate.net/publication…

Jörg Niewöhner also emphasises that there is a predominance of conceptual/theoretical points in #sts. We need to be better at accumulating emprical insights. A member comments: my experience is that there is an overweight of empirical data and lack the time to combine & theorize.
