STAST 2020

10th International Workshop on Socio-Technical Aspects in SecuriTy
http://stast.uni.lu        

17 September 2020
 
Affiliated with the 25th European Symposium on Research in Computer Security 
(ESORICS) 2020
https://www.surrey.ac.uk/esorics-2020

After evaluating the ongoing COVID-19 situation, the decision has been made to 
run ESORICS 2020 and the associated workshops as an online event. Therefore, 
STAST 2020 will take place as entirely virtual.

*** EVENT

The workshop intends to stimulate an exchange of ideas and experiences on how 
to design systems that are secure in the real world where they interact with 
non-expert users. It aims at bringing together experts in various areas of 
computer security and in social and behavioral sciences.


*** PROGRAMME

The full programme is available at http://www.stast.uni.lu/programme.html

STAST will feature an invited talk by Angela Sasse (Ruhr University Bochum)

TITLE:
Dysfunctional relationships in security–and how to move beyond them

ABSTRACT:
In 20 years of usable security research, and a parallel body of research on 
security culture in information security, little attention has been paid to how 
the relationships between different stakeholders affect security 
decision-making in organisations. Notable exceptions are the security dialogues 
work by Ashenden & Lawrence (2016) and the inclusive security approach 
pioneered by Coles-Kemp and colleagues (e.g. Hall, Heath & Coles-Kemp, 2015). 
My research has found that security professionals often abuse security as a 
means of power (Inglesant & Sasse, 2010) and take a non-trusting stance towards 
non-security colleagues (Kirlappos & Sasse 2015). In a current project, we 
examine the relationship between business leaders and security professionals. I 
will present the core misunderstanding that causes those relationships to be 
dysfunctional, and examine how different stakeholders have to evolve too so 
that we can build functional relationships.
