Arrah-Marie JO

I have joined the Logic of Uses, Social Sciences and Information (LUSSI) department at IMT Atlantique as an assistant professor starting from September 2020.

I was a post-doctoral fellow at the Governance and Regulation Chair of Paris Dauphine University from 2019 to 2020. I obtained my PhD in Economics at Institut Polytechnique de Paris, Télécom Paris, in November 2019.

My research interests cover the economics of information security, digital economy and information system management. In my thesis, I focus on the interaction between different actors (software vendors, users, security firms, white-hat hackers, etc.) and the provision of software security. I am also interested in emerging markets related to information security (e.g. bug bounty platforms, blockchain applications).

In my work, I mostly do empirical analysis using quantitative tools.

Before starting my PhD under the supervision of Marc Bourreau (Telecom ParisTech, Institut Polytechnique de Paris), I have worked 4 years as a consultant in information system management for financial services.

I am part of the program committee for the 19th annual Workshop on the Economics of Information Security (WEIS), which is held in Brussels this year. I am also a member of the French Association for Research in Digital Economics (AFREN).
