Jon Adams – Doctoral Student and Adjunct Faculty
I am a doctoral student at Marymount University in Cybersecurity. My dissertation chair is Dr. Michelle Liu. I passed my dissertation proposal exam in late May 2021.
I’m interested in Human Factors in Cybersecurity, Privacy Enhancing Technologies, and Endpoint/Mobile Device Security. My dissertation is, broadly, about human factors related to the adoption of good cyber-hygiene and corporate policy compliance.
