Abstract
Several studies have examined ethical and privacy concerns in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and cybersecurity research. However, the approaches to assure proper ethics and privacy standards in cybersecurity research are not adequately studied. This paper introduces a framework to evaluate the ethical considerations of cybersecurity research studies. Our framework was used to evaluate the ethical and privacy considerations for the technical papers published in the proceedings of SOUPS 2017. Our research provides future researchers with methods for conducting ethically sound cybersecurity research.
