Tom Welsh and Bashar Nuseibeh will contribute their security & privacy expertise in a new SFI-funded research project, Covigilant, which aims to generate evidence to inform Ireland’s digital contact-tracing strategy and app. One early outcome of the project is “A National Survey of attitudes to COVID-19 Digital Contact Tracing in the Republic of Ireland”, which found that a vast majority of Irish adults are willing to download a contact tracing app to their smartphone to curb the COVID-19 pandemic.
