"Better Cybersecurity Research Requires More Data Sharing"

Security researchers from the University of Tulsa gave a presentation at the annual Workshop on the Economics of Information Security (WEIS) conference in which they emphasized the importance of sharing datasets among researchers in order to improve cybersecurity research. The identification of cybersecurity trends rely on the analysis of data pertaining to security incidents, breaches, the techniques used by attackers, and more. According to researchers, this type of the data is often unavailable to the public or inadequate. This article continues to discuss the importance of data in cybersecurity research and the lack of data sharing within the research community.
