Security products and intelligence gathering tools

We conduct user experience research (UX) for security products, intelligence gathering tools and services. We do this by conducting quantitative and qualitative research to establish exactly how your users and customers will utilise your product or service. Our goal is to ensure that the end-user is able to fully utilise the features of your product thereby outperforming your competitors.

We work with tech companies that develop security and intelligence tools for business and government agencies. Our user research will help your design team build a fully optimised, user-centric product.

Security through UX Research

Through UX research We help make your product secure from a user perspective, this will mean you don’t breach GDPR, incur reputational damage or lose revenue.

We work with tech developers, gaming platforms, applications, and website creators to ensure that your product, service or platform is not misused for criminal activity and your customers do not become victims of crime.

Through conducting user research we will discover vulnerabilities in your product, service or platform that can be exploited by criminals and expose your intended end-user to risk.

Our goal is to help you ensure your product, service or platform is safe for your users. We have seen predatory criminals use social media, games, websites, and devices to commit sex crimes, financial crimes, organised crimes and terrorism.

Our expert knowledge in criminal behaviour and victimology developed through a career as senior detectives and Doctoral researchers in cybercrime is pivotal in being able to identify security vulnerabilities. Through user research, we will be able to show the impact of the vulnerability to your end-user which help your design and solutions teams to develop safeguards and solutions.

Terrorism: how is technology and cyber space utilised and exploited by terrorist organisations?

We research cyber sex violations:

sextortion

manipulation

online child sexual abuse

Online organised economic crime We examine the tools and techniques deployed by attackers to make financial gain and to cause organisations and individuals financial loss:

 

 

 

 

• Mismanaged funds by the entrepreneur and management board
through intellectual property and product fraud

• The entrepreneur can undersell the risk of the venture

• Share fraud – entrepreneur inflating the price of the share or selling shares that don’t exist

• Upfront payment scams

• Land banking scams

• Ponzi schemes

• Online investment fraud

 

 

 

 

for each area, we examine the methodology used by the attacker to identify comparable patterns in behaviour and similarities in their attack vector. For example, does a terrorist who aims to radicalise a young person online use similar technique as an online predator?

Phishing
Spear phishing
Vishing
Pretexting
baiting

Or infecting your computer with

Malware
Spyware
Ransomware
Remote access trojans.

We develop engaging and realistic social engineering simulation methodologies.
We research techniques used in cybercrime’s and hacks. We then reverse engineer the process to understand how the human element made the hack successful.
