My Research / Dissertation & video series
A public record of how my research developed: revisiting the evidence, correcting early assumptions, and showing how each question became something people can use.
My 2020 EPQ asked whether cybersecurity was “secure” for modern use. The new 2026 dissertation rebuilds that starting point as a complete 17-page, 9,000+ word investigation of security fields, roles, overlap, effectiveness and resilience.
My 2024 BSc dissertation examined how governments, schools, employers and consumers choose devices when security, practicality and reliability evidence is fragmented. It developed a provisioning framework and prototype that has since become a working Device Provisioning Toolkit.
MyMark was the capstone project for my Postgraduate Diploma in Network and Information Security, awarded with Distinction by Kingston University London. It developed a framework for establishing media provenance and supporting responses to image-based abuse, sextortion and identity misuse; its active codebase now makes the distinction between established features and continuing research explicit.
The current system protects local originals, creates signed receipts and evidence packages, and supports bounded local and participating-platform checks. Experimental biometric and 4D claims remain disabled until source-separated, real-data evidence qualifies them. The submitted dissertation and presentation are shared on request because they contain personal academic information and identifiable research media.
