The SecDev Group is a cyber-research think tank based in Ottawa, Canada. The group previously operated out of Cambridge University under the name of the Advanced Network Research Group.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.cambridgesecurity.net/public_html/project-anrg.html )〕 Their research focuses on the intersection of cyberspace with social and political change, and draws on social media and public data sources, field research, and other monitoring tools. The group's CEO is Rafal Rohozinski,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://blogs.howstuffworks.com/tag/secdev-group/ )〕 who was also instrumental in the development of Psiphon, a software application that allows people living in closed societies to access censored information.〔(Ottawa exec's company aims to bring down 'Great Firewall of China' )〕 The SecDev group monitors and produces research reports on the cyber environment in diverse countries and regions, including in Syria, China and Latin America, and tracks "the emergence of cyberspace as a strategic domain." It is also one of the main institutional partners of the OpenNet Initiative. One of SecDev's seminal reports is "Tracking Ghostnet," which was one of the first to uncover the details of Chinese actors' cyberespionage activities.〔"Tracking GhostNet: Investigating a Cyber Espionage Network," The SecDev Group, March 29, 2009〕 The report, which was conducted jointly with researchers from the University of Toronto Citizen Lab, led to dozens of newspaper articles and preceded the more thorough exposition of cyberespionage activities by actors in China, including by hackers thought to be associated with the People's Liberation Army. ==External links== * (Official website ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「The SecDev Group」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
