Develops interactive tools (Privacy Parrot) that bring privacy-preserving techniques into early IoT software design, supporting collaborative, privacy-aware workflows.
IoT applications require both software and hardware to cooperate across multiple nodes with different capabilities, creating complexity that often causes privacy considerations to be overlooked during development. This project develops an interactive design methodology to integrate privacy-preserving techniques into IoT application development from the earliest stages.
The research creates PRIVACY PARROT, an interactive collaborative tool designed for use by business analysts, requirements engineers, UX designers, and software engineers. The project reviews existing design notations and tools for capturing non-functional requirements, then co-designs a privacy-aware IoT methodology that helps development teams embed privacy thinking throughout the software lifecycle. Evaluation studies assess the tool’s effectiveness in enhancing engineers’ privacy knowledge and awareness.
