Many aspects of information security combine technical and human factors. If a highly secure system is unusable, users will try to circumvent the system or move entirely to less secure but more usable systems. The workshop on Usable Security invites submissions on all aspects of human factors and usability in the context of security and aims to bring together researchers already engaged in this interdisciplinary effort with other computer science researchers in areas such as visualization, artificial intelligence and theoretical computer science as well as researchers from other domains such as economics or psychology.
The organizers are now soliciting original papers describing research or experience in all areas of usable privacy and security. They particularly encourage collaborative research from authors in multiple fields. Topics include, but are not limited to:
- Evaluation of usability issues of existing security & privacy models or technology
- Design and evaluation of new security & privacy models or technology
- Impact of organizational policy or procurement decisions
- Lessons learned from designing, deploying, managing or evaluating security & privacy technologies
- Foundations of usable security & privacy
- Methodology for usable security & privacy research
- Ethical, psychological, sociological and economic aspects of security & privacy technologies
