This research area attempts to develop understanding of human perception and provides insight through sentiment analysis in computing. It includes developments of theories, methodologies, techniques and practices. It is inspired through understanding and intuition in the use of natural language processing, context analysis, and computational linguistic to identify and extract subjective information in source materials. Research may explore into profiling and modeling user behavior based on context analysis in the technology such as social media e.g use of text and emoticon in facebook and twitter. Research conducted in this area deals with human behavior and cognition, Socio-technical issues, Affection, human centered design, social media and interaction.
OBJECTIVES
:
1. To promote high quality research in the area of perceptive and sentiment computing centered towards psychological and sociological concerns.
2. To facilitate and support research, publications, innovation, communication and dissemination of knowledge in the area of perceptive and sentiment computing.
3. To support and uphold the vision and mission of IIUM research objectives i.e. inculcate Islamization of human knowledge, produce outstanding researchers.

The rise of new media channels (such as the Internet, mobile devices, and social networking sites) has created opportunities as well as challenges to individuals, organizations, and the society at large. Individuals use and engage with social media for diverse purposes such as co-creation, entertainment, mentoring, networking, friendship, career advancement, learning, collective action and civic engagement. Organizations also experiment with various social platforms to improve performance through crowdsourcing, online collaboration and communication, online communities, mobile computing and social media services.
These challenges and changes give rise to novel and important research questions, which attract a strong interest among scholars. A wide range of research methods, such as qualitative and quantitative approaches, social network analysis, data mining, sentiment analysis or design research have been applied to explore and explain social media related phenomena. Further, social media facilitate users to create, cooperate, and share content. Through capturing social media data and applying novel methods such as decision making models, design frameworks, group behavior elicitation (e.g. herding effects), and opinion/sentiment mining, business intelligence and actionable decision making can be obtained.
The major aim of this research unit is to support and facilitate scholars to validate research ideas related to social media. It also aims to raise awareness in terms of the latest development in social technologies, to address the opportunities and challenges associated with the use of social media by individuals, organizations, and the contemporary society. This unit is open to all types of research, conceptual or empirical.

This research unit (RU) was established in August 2017 and approved in September 2017 under CyberSecurity Centre of Excellence. We named our research unit “Information Assurance and Security”, in line with the naming convention used in ACM and IEEE curricula for information technology (IT). Currently, we have 14 members from the Department of Information Systems and the Department of Computer Science, Kulliyyah (Faculty) of Information and Communication Technology (ICT), International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM).
According to the U.S. Department of Defense (2017), Information Assurance refers to the managerial and technical measures designed to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, availability, authenticity, and utility of information and information systems. This term, which has spread from the U.S. Government use into common parlance, is sometimes synonymous with information security. Information Assurance is a multidisciplinary area of study and professional activity which aims to protect the business by reducing risks associated with information and information systems by means of comprehensive and systematic management of security countermeasures, which is driven by risk analysis and cost-effectiveness (Cherdantseva & Hilton, 2013).
Our research unit organizes our research activities in areas within the definitions given above. To date, apart from ongoing information security research supervision and teaching and learning activities, we had organized information security research retreats, Malware Analysis training, CyberSecurity competitions and share research findings with the security industry, to name few. We look forward to doing more impactful research, to empower our students and to collaborate with the industry considering the importance of information security education, training, and awareness to everyone.
1. To apply, analyze, evaluate and/or develop best practices and effective procedures to current and relevant information assurance and security problems and challenges.
2. To apply, analyze, evaluate and/or develop a comprehensive and systematic management of security countermeasures to protect business or organizations and society by addressing risks associated with information and information systems
3. To promote information assurance and security to multidisciplinary research community and industry through research collaborations and knowledge exchange.
