معرفی
Dr. Ioannis Agrafiotis is a Senior Cybersecurity Researcher at the Department of Computer Science, University of Oxford, and a James Martin Fellow at the Global Cyber Security Capacity Centre (GCSCC). His work focuses on cybersecurity research and capacity building initiatives across multiple domains including risk analysis, cyber resilience, cyber insurance, and threat detection systems.
Dr. Agrafiotis completed his doctoral studies in Engineering at the University of Warwick in 2012 (EPSRC-funded), where he focused on dynamic consent modeling. He also holds an MSc in Analysis, Design and Management of Information Systems from the London School of Economics and Political Science (2008) and a BSc in Applied Informatics from the University of Macedonia in Greece (2006).
His research spans several critical areas in cybersecurity including capacity building in cybersecurity, risk analysis and resilience in the cyber domain, cyber insurance, and anomaly detection techniques for internal and external threats. His work addresses how nations and organizations can strengthen their cyber defenses, how systems can withstand and recover from attacks, how security controls are assessed in insurance frameworks, and how to identify threats through advanced detection methods.
His publications reveal a strong focus on insider threat detection, cyber harm taxonomy, social media analysis for rumor verification, and cybersecurity capacity building. His work demonstrates a consistent pattern of bridging theoretical research with practical applications across multiple cybersecurity domains.
Dr. Agrafiotis has received recognition through his James Martin Fellowship at the Global Cyber Security Capacity Centre. His research contributions have advanced understanding in cybersecurity metrics, threat modeling, and capacity development frameworks.
As an educator, Dr. Agrafiotis teaches for the Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) on topics including cyber risk, security controls, online privacy, and anomaly detection. He supervises students at undergraduate, Masters, and doctoral levels, guiding the next generation of cybersecurity researchers. He is involved with the Cybersecurity Analytics group at Oxford and has contributed to several key projects including GCSCC, EnCoRe, TEASE, CyberVis, and the Corporate Insider Threat Detection initiative.
