Abstract
The nature of cyberspace continues to evolve, and so do the associated threats. The focus of the cyber security industry is typically (and understandably) on high-value assets. However, there is a large user group intersecting with corporate and government IT users, which lacks the resources -- in terms of finance, time and/or knowledge -- to deal with the threats that they face. We argue that greater attention needs to be given to this user group, differentiating these small-scale IT users when thinking about cyber security. Going further, we argue that it is essential that the research community starts to give consideration to what we term Small-Scale Cyber Security. To this end, we describe the results of an initial feasibility study, as well as a research agenda for tackling this cross-disciplinary problem.
