The aim of this research agenda is to stimulate research on the human factor in cybercrime and cybersecurity. The human factor in cybercrime and cybersecurity includes offenders, victims and actors who play a role in tackling crime. In this agenda, researchers in the field of non-technological research into cybercrime and cybersecurity jointly provide the state-of-the-art of research on the role of the human factor in this research field. In addition, examples are given of important research questions and innovative research methods and datasets that are needed for future research on the human factor in cybercrime and cybersecurity.
For the development of this research agenda, experts in the field of non-technological research on cybercrime and cybersecurity have been the focus of consultations. This does not imply that technical sciences are not needed to answer the research questions outlined in this agenda. That different disciplines are needed to study and understand cybercrime and cybersecurity is not in doubt. This research agenda can be seen as a foundation for further thought with disciplines, inside and outside the social sciences, about how the formulated research topics and research questions can best be answered.
