There is growing recognition that technology alone cannot provide all of the solutions to security and privacy problems. Human factors play an important role, and it is important for security and privacy experts to have an understanding of how people might interact with the systems they develop. This course explores a variety of usability and user interface pitfalls related to privacy and security and provides experiences in designing studies aimed at helping to evaluate usability issues in security and privacy systems.
