Designing a method for assessing the societal risks posed by quantum computing on public key infrastructures

Quantum computing presents a threat to the current cryptographic standards in place, supporting our digital scoiety. As our lives are increasingly dependent on electronic transactions, our society becomes increasingly vulnerable to distortions of digital trust. By taking a design science research approach, this thesis designs a risk assessment meth...

Cardiovascular Risk Assessment Using Artificial Intelligence-Enabled Event Adjudication and Hematologic Predictors.

BackgroundResearchers routinely evaluate novel biomarkers for incorporation into clinical risk models, weighing tradeoffs between cost, availability, and ease of deployment. For risk assessment in population health initiatives, ideal inputs would be those already available for most patients. We hypothesized that common hematologic markers (eg, hema...

The COVID-19 pandemic: Virus transmission and risk assessment

Published in Current Opinion in Environmental Science & Health

The coronaviruses are the largest known RNA viruses of which SASR-CoV-2 has been spreading continuously due to its repeated mutation triggered by several environmental factors. Multiple human interventions and lessons learned from the SARS 2002 outbreak helped reduce its spread considerably, and thus, the virus was contained but the emerging mutati...

A Cyber-Security Risk Assessment Methodology for Medical Imaging Devices: the Radiologists' Perspective.

Published in Journal of digital imaging

Medical imaging devices (MIDs) are exposed to cyber-security threats. Currently, a comprehensive, efficient methodology dedicated to MID cyber-security risk assessment is lacking. We propose the Threat identification, ontology-based Likelihood, severity Decomposition, and Risk assessment (TLDR) methodology and demonstrate its feasibility and consis...
