Anthony Ballard Email and Phone Number

I am a Ph.D. student in Information Technology (IT). My focus is in cybersecurity and cyberphysical systems. I graduated summa cum laude with a 4.0 and have since received the National Security Administration (NSA) scholarship for several semesters.My research strategy is a mixed method (qualitative and quantitative) approach. Quantitatively, I use SPSS and STATA for my statistical analyses. Qualitatively, I prefer ethnography and case study. If you're interested, we can collaborate via Zotero or Qiqqa.I am limiting my cyberphysical research scope to the proceeding critical infrastructures: telecommunications; electrical power systems; gas and oil storage and transportation; banking and finance; transportation; water supply systems; emergency services (including medical, police, fire, and rescue); and, continuity of government.I am limiting my cybersecurity research to the proceeding cyber technologies: Information Technology (IT); Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) and Industrial Control Systems (ICS); smart home, smart meter, and smart grid; and nanotechnology (automatons, celluar automata, teleautomata/telerobotics, and neuroscience).I have a strong foundation in: IT Economics; IT Security; IT Strategy; IT Investment; and IT Infrastructure.AB
