About
Joakim K. Hansen is a leading researcher at the intersection of cybersecurity and human-robot interaction, with a primary focus on the security of social robots deployed in public spaces. His most influential work, a systematic review on the threat landscape and attack surface of social robots, has garnered 35 citations and established a foundational framework for understanding the unique vulnerabilities these autonomous systems face outside controlled environments. Hansen’s contributions are pivotal in mapping how malicious actors could exploit social robots—from sensor manipulation to communication interception—thereby shaping the emerging field of robotic cybersecurity. Beyond this seminal review, his research delves into the practical implications of securing interactive robots in crowded, unpredictable settings, bridging the gap between roboticists and security experts. By highlighting the urgent need for robust defenses in public-facing robotics, Hansen has not only advanced academic discourse but also informed industry standards and policy discussions. His work serves as a critical resource for students and researchers exploring the safety and trustworthiness of our increasingly robotic future.
