About Us

COGSEC CANADA is dedicated to understanding how human cognition interacts with information environments, influence systems, and decision-making.

Cognitive Security Canada is a non-profit, non-partisan initiative focused on strengthening human perception and decision-making in complex information environments.

Research Team

We bring together public-interest research perspectives focused on human systems, civic awareness, information environments, and decision integrity.

Myles Jones
Investigator

Myles Jones is a Canadian public-interest researcher working in cognitive security, human perception, and AI-augmented analysis.

His work examines how individuals, groups, and human systems interpret information, form judgments, and make decisions under conditions of complexity, uncertainty, and influence. He approaches cognitive security through a human-systems lens, emphasizing lived experience, behavioral dynamics, and the structure of decision environments.

Through Cognitive Security Canada, he develops civilian-focused frameworks to understand and address influence, misinformation, psychological manipulation, social engineering, and decision vulnerability across public and institutional contexts.

His background integrates open-source intelligence (OSINT), behavioral analysis, systems thinking, and operational experience across complex social environments. This interdisciplinary approach supports practical research, evidence development, and decision awareness for communities, policymakers, and civic organizations.

Bradley Robinson
Systems Research

Bradley Robinson is a Systems Researcher contributing to the organization’s work on human systems, civic resilience, institutional behavior, and decision environments.

His research perspective is grounded in the idea that most problems are not isolated events. They emerge through patterns, incentives, pressures, gaps, and feedback loops that shape how people think, respond, comply, resist, and adapt.

As a Systems Researcher, Bradley helps interpret complex social and organizational conditions in a practical, human-centered way. His work supports clearer observation, deeper analysis, and more responsible integration of knowledge across civic, technological, and institutional environments.

Halla Trineer
Civilian Research

Halla Trineer is a Civilian Researcher, contributing a grounded, independent, and generational perspective to the study of human systems, civic awareness, and information environments.

His work is rooted in a practical question: how do ordinary people make sense of complex systems that often move faster than they can fully understand? From digital platforms and institutional processes to public narratives, social pressure, and emerging technologies, Halla’s research interest centers on the everyday human experience of navigating uncertainty.

As a Civilian Researcher, Halla helps strengthen the civilian side of cognitive security: how people perceive information, respond to pressure, form trust, and make decisions in real-world conditions.
