My name is Amel Attatfa. I am currently pursuing a PhD in Cyber Diplomacy, more specifically an analysis of diplomatic actions in international relations in cyberspace. 

As I’m in the data collection phase, I needed a tool where I could organize all my research on a map, and that’s when I found Iris.ai. 

The process of using Iris.ai is straight forward, as the website teaches the user how to use it. When I started, the website prompted me to enter my research question and explain the academic definitions. Then I got my research map, which I was able to adjust by using filters. I got used to the Iris.ai tools pretty quickly. 

How did Iris.ai help your research?

Iris.ai organizes all my research in maps, which is divided nicely into different categories in the Explore tool. It also validates my own work for the literature review, as I can see whether the map matches my own research. 

The website is also like a repository of information, on which I found papers that were possibly relevant to my research and potential participants for interviews, dealing with cyber matters.
