It is commonly acknowledged that security requirements cannot be addressed by technical means alone, and that a significant aspect of protection comes down to the attitudes, awareness, behaviour and capabilities of the people involved. Indeed, people can potentially represent a key asset in achieving security, but at present, factors such as lack of awareness and understanding, combined with unreasonable demands from security technologies, can dramatically impede their ability to do so. Ensuring appropriate attention and support for the needs of users should therefore be seen as a vital element of a successful security strategy.People at all levels (i.e. from organisations to domestic environments; from system administrators to end-users) need to understand security concepts, how the issues may apply to them, and how to use the available technology to protect their systems. In addition, the technology itself can make a contribution by reducing the demands upon users, simplifying protection measures, and automating a variety of safeguards.With the above in mind, this symposium specifically addresses information security issues that relate to people. It concerns the methods that inform and guide users' understanding of security, and the technologies that can benefit and support them in achieving protection.ThemesThe symposium welcomes papers addressing research and case studies in relation to any aspect of information security that pertains to the attitudes, perceptions and behaviour of people, and how human characteristics or technologies may be positively modified to improve the level of protection. Indicative themes include:Information security cultureAwareness and education methodsEnhancing risk perceptionPublic understanding of securityUsable securityPsychological models of security software usageUser acceptance of security policies and technologiesUser-friendly authentication methodsBiometric technologies and impactsAutomating security functionalityNon-intrusive securityAssisting security administrationImpacts of standards, policies, compliance requirementsOrganizational governance for information assuranceSimplifying risk and threat assessmentUnderstanding motivations for misuseSocial engineering and other human-related risksPrivacy attitudes and practicesComputer ethics and securityPaper Submission, review and publicationAuthors are invited to submit full papers, not exceeding ten pages (including all figures, tables and references) by 13 February 2012.
