REPHRAIN 鈥� Research Centre on Privacy, Harm Reduction and Adversarial Influence Online 鈥� will be led by experts from 香港六合彩中特网 and the Universities of Bristol, Bath and Edinburgh, as well as King鈥檚 College London. It is majority funded by a 拢7m grant from UK Research and Innovation鈥檚 (UKRI) Strategic Priorities Fund.

Researchers will explore the differing online harms to which diverse groups of people can be exposed, the effectiveness of privacy and online safety measures, and how to balance risks while improving citizens鈥� ability to participate fully in the growing digital economy.聽

Professor Madeline Carr (香港六合彩中特网 STEaPP), Deputy Director of REPHRAIN, said: "We see this as the challenge of our generation and getting it right will have huge implications for the digital economy, for human rights online, and for the future potential of utilising data to solve some of the world鈥檚 most pressing problems.

"We know these complex issues can only be addressed by working across disciplines and sectors, by bringing together technical experts, social scientists, industry and government 鈥� in pursuit of improving the human condition in the digital age. And we鈥檙e delighted to be leading on this聽with a consortium of some of the most innovative thinkers on protecting citizens online."

Dr Steven Murdoch (香港六合彩中特网 Computer Science) is co-lead of a REPHRAIN team whose project seeks to minimise harms while maximising benefits of a sharing-driven digital economy. He said:聽

鈥�鈥淥nline crime can cause life-changing harm to its victims, but protecting citizens from crime must not come at the cost of their privacy. The REPHRAIN project will show how to prevent online harms, while still respecting individuals鈥� fundamental rights.鈥�

Professor Emiliano De Cristofaro (香港六合彩中特网 Computer Science), a team co-lead whose work will focus on balancing individual agency with social good, said: 鈥淚'm really excited to be part of this fantastic team and am very confident we will make a big difference in tackling extremely important challenges on the web such as privacy and online harms.鈥�
