Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner. The Cyber Security Breaches Survey, 2019 was run to understand organisations' approaches and attitudes to cyber security, and to understand their experience of cyber security breaches. Its aim was to support the Government by providing evidence that can inform policies which help to make Britain a safer place to do business online.The data have been collected annually since 2016 to understand the views of UK organisations on cyber security. Data is collected on topics including online use; attitudes of organisations to cyber security and awareness of Government initiatives; approaches to cyber security (including investment and processes); incidences and impact of a cyber security breach or attack; and how breaches are dealt with by the organisation. This information helps to inform Government policy towards organisations, including how best to target key messages to businesses and charities so that they are cyber secure (and so that the UK is the safest place in the world to do business online). Please note that the UK Data Service only holds data from 2018 onwards. The underlying data are useful for researchers to better understand the response across a range of organisations (rather than averages) and for wider comparability over time. The survey originally only covered businesses but was expanded to include charities from the 2018 survey onwards. Main Topics: Views, experiences and behaviours of organisations (UK businesses and charities) on cyber security and cyber security breaches. Multi-stage stratified random sample

The dataset supports the publication "Data Sharing and Use in Cybersecurity Research" by I. Kouper and S. Stone (in the CODATA Data Science Journal).Paper abstract: Data sharing is crucial for strengthening research integrity and outcomes, and for addressing complex problems. In cybersecurity research, data sharing can enable the development of new security measures, prediction of malicious attacks, and increased privacy. Understanding the landscape of data sharing and use in cybersecurity research can help to improve both the existing practices of data management and use and the outcomes of cybersecurity research. To this end, this study used methods of qualitative analysis and descriptive statistics to analyze 171 papers published between 2015 and 2019, their authors' characteristics, such as gender and professional title, and datasets' attributes, including their origin and public availability. The study found that more than half of the datasets in the sample (58%) and an even larger percentage of code in the papers (89%) were not publicly available. By offering an updated in-depth perspective on data practices in cybersecurity, including the role of authors, research methods, data sharing, and code availability, this study calls for the improvement of data management in cybersecurity research and for further collaboration in addressing the issues of cyberinfrastructure, policies, and citation and attribution standards in order to advance the quality and availability of data in this field.The dataset consists of four files:codebook.xlsx - the codebook of the study that contains coding categories, coding variables and their descriptions and specific codes developed to describe the data.publications.xlsx - metadata and coded content for 171 publications collected for the study.first authors.xlsx - metadata and coded content for first authors of the analyzed publications.
