University of Oxford

Jonathan Lusthaus is Director of The Human Cybercriminal Project in the Department of Sociology, University of Oxford. His research focusses on the "human" side of profit-driven cybercrime: who cybercriminals are and how they are organised. In particular, he is interested in issues of trust, cooperation and governance. Jonathan has recently completed a seven-year global study on the organisation of cybercrime to be published by Harvard University Press under the title Industry of Anonymity: Inside the Business of Cybercrime. As part of this research, he has travelled to cybercrime hotspots around the globe and conducted almost 250 interviews with law enforcement, the private sector and former cybercriminals. Jonathan holds a doctorate in sociology from the University of Oxford, where he was a Clarendon Scholar.
