Coordinated online harassment by collections of individuals and groups is a scourge of the modern Internet. It has upended and cost lives, silenced voices, and is making our public discourse more cruel and less representative. The phenomenon creates challenges for those who seek an equitable, secure and trustworthy internet to reduce the threat of coordinated attacks and handle attacks swiftly and effectively. Using the research team's past experiences with a clinical model that has been useful in helping victims of intimate partner violence, and new understandings of how to handle coordinated harassment to reduce harms and provide active assistance to targets of harassment, this project pilots an advice clinic. To ensure that the work has practical, real world impact, the project is also developing materials and working with platforms, threat intelligence companies, and non-profit organizations that help targets of online harassment .The project uses a comprehensive set of technical and human-centered methods to advance our understanding of coordinated harassment threats and mitigation techniques. The coordination of harassment allows harassers to scale their attacks, but also provides defenders with an opportunity to monitor attackers. This project will study how threat intelligence---an emerging area of cybersecurity that has enabled the blocking, detecting, and remediation of cyberattacks---can be used to monitor channels where coordinated harassment and doxing campaigns happen, understand escalation processes, identify pain points, and prioritize courses of action for platforms, law enforcement, and targeted individuals. The multidisciplinary team and mixed methods approach will enable the project to not only build sophisticated tools, but also build scientific knowledge in multiple fields and to understand whether and how the proposed tools can contribute solutions to a complex societal problem.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

由个人和团体的集合协调的在线骚扰是现代互联网的祸害。它颠覆了生命，付出了沉默的声音，使我们的公共话语更加残酷和代表性更低。这种现象给那些寻求公平，安全和可信赖的互联网以迅速有效地处理攻击的威胁的人带来了挑战。利用研究团队的过去经验，该模型可用于帮助亲密伴侣暴力的受害者，以及对如何处理如何处理协调骚扰以减少危害并为骚扰目标提供积极帮助的新理解，该项目飞行员咨询诊所。为了确保工作具有实用的现实世界影响，该项目还正在开发材料，并与平台，威胁情报公司和非营利组织合作，这些组织有助于针对在线骚扰的目标。该项目采用了一系列以技术和人为中心的方法来促进我们对协调的骚扰威胁和缓解技术的理解。骚扰的协调使骚扰者可以扩大其攻击，但也为防守者提供了监视攻击者的机会。该项目将研究威胁智能如何 - 可以使用网络安全领域的新兴领域，该领域能够阻止，检测和修复网络攻击 - 可用于监视频道进行协调的骚扰和挑剔运动的发生，了解升级过程，了解升级过程，识别痛苦点，并确定痛苦点并优先考虑平台，执法，执法，以及执法，以及律法，和目标，以及目标，以及目标，以及目标。多学科团队和混合方法方法将使项目不仅能够建立复杂的工具，而且还可以在多个领域建立科学知识，并了解拟议工具是否以及如何为复杂的社会问题贡献解决方案。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并认为通过基金会的知识优点和广泛的crietia来评估，并被认为是值得通过评估来支持的。
