I am working as a professor for information and computer science department. I have over 25 years of international experience, eight years in the software industry, and more than 17 years in academia. Previously, I worked for Keele University UK, National ICT Australia, the University of Technology Sydney Australia, the University of Sydney Australia, and the University of Manchester, UK. For the last 25 years, I have been collaborating with the software industry and academia to address real-world problems. These problems are manifold, e.g., software security engineering, Insider-threats management, Cybersecurity management, organizations readiness for cyber-attacks, the use of digital technologies to solve business problems, SMEs software process improvement, and systems development. My research focuses on exploring and designing innovative processes to improve systems development in organizations. I am interested in developing sustainable processes. A sustainable process is a process that is adaptable, easy to use and learn, supported by the technology, secure, empirically sound, and is benchmarked on existing software quality standards and models. His research areas include Sustainable, Reliable, and Secure Software Engineering Processes, Software Security Engineering, Cybersecurity management, Insider-threats management, Cybersecurity culture and Empirical and Evidence-based Software Engineering.
