Brehmer, Martin (author), Abbas, A.E. (author), Vaidyanathan, Nageswaran (author)The risk of being impacted by a cyberattack is high, because of more professional attacks. Thereby, cyber criminals are bypassing technological countermeasures through tricking users. Recently collected data during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic demonstrate, that cyberattacks including social engineering are among the main threats, especially for Small...conference paper 2021

Abbas, A.E. (author)Data Marketplace Meta-platforms (DMMPs) federate the fragmented set of data marketplaces and are expected to become a pivotal instrument to realize a single European Data Market in 2030. However, one critical hindrance to foster the adoption of business data sharing via DMMPs is data providers' risk of losing control over data. Generally, the...conference paper 2021
