网络安全和利维坦

Cyber security and the Leviathan

Joseph Da Silva

摘要:

专门的网络安全功能在商业企业中很常见,他们面临着不断发展和普遍存在的数据泄露和其他危险安全事件的威胁。这类企业与其经营所在的更广泛的社会相互交织。通过对15位首席信息安全官和6位高级组织领导人进行深入的半结构化访谈,我们发现,政治哲学家托马斯·霍布斯(Thomas Hobbes)的工作,特别是利维坦(Leviathan),提供了一个有用的视角,通过这个视角,我们可以了解这些职能和西方社会网络安全的背景。我们的研究结果表明,这些企业中的网络安全展示了许多霍布斯特征,这些特征进一步牵连到更广泛的利维坦式国家,并为其提供了重大利益。这些措施包括将监视等侵入性控制措施正常化,以及刺激消费。最后,我们建议网络安全从业人员的影响,特别是,这些观点提供的自反性,以及为企业和其他研究人员。

英文摘要:

Dedicated cyber-security functions are common in commercial businesses, who are confronted by evolving and pervasive threats of data breaches and other perilous security events. Such businesses are enmeshed with the wider societies in which they operate. Using data gathered from in-depth, semi-structured interviews with 15 Chief Information Security Officers, as well as six senior organisational leaders, we show that the work of political philosopher Thomas Hobbes, particularly Leviathan, offers a useful lens through which to understand the context of these functions and of cyber security in Western society. Our findings indicate that cyber security within these businesses demonstrates a number of Hobbesian features that are further implicated in, and provide significant benefits to, the wider Leviathan-esque state. These include the normalisation of intrusive controls, such as surveillance, and the stimulation of consumption. We conclude by suggesting implications for cyber-security practitioners, in particular, the reflexivity that these perspectives offer, as well as for businesses and other researchers.
