Therefore, it is critical to limit technical vulnerabilities as well as insecure user behavior, poorly designed user interfaces, and unclear or unrealistic security policies. To improve the security of systems, technology designers and policymakers must consider user needs and characteristics. Social science and usable security researchers have shown that insecure user behavior stems from cognitive, emotional, and social perspectives. When there is a good 'fit' of technology for users, workable security policies and targeted behavioral support can augment technical security. Finding the right balance between technical and social security measures remains largely unexplored, which motivates the need for the STAST workshop. Currently, different computer security communities (theoretical security, systems security, usable security, and security management) rarely work together. The respective communities tend to offload on each other parts of problems that they consider to be out of scope, an attitude that results in deficient or unsuitable security solutions. Thus, there remains a need for focused, holistic research on socio-technical security. *** GOALS The STAST workshop intends to stimulate an exchange of ideas on how to design systems that are secure in the real world where they interact with users of varying lived experiences and diverse needs. The workshop aims at bringing together experts working in various areas of computer security as well as in social and behavioral sciences. *** WORKSHOP TOPICS Contributions should focus on the interplay of technical, organizational, and human factors in achieving or breaking security, privacy, and trust. For example: - Usability and user experience - Models of user behaviour and user interactions with technology - Perceptions of related risks, as well as their influence on humans - Social engineering, persuasion, and other deception techniques - Requirements for socio-technical systems - Decision making in/for socio-technical systems - Feasibility of policies, standards, and regulations from a socio-technical perspective - Social factors in organizations' policies and processes - Interplay of law, ethics, and politics with security and privacy measures - Balance between technical measures and social strategies - Threat models that combine technical and human-centered strategies - Socio-technical analysis of incidents and vulnerabilities - Studies of real-world vulnerabilities/incidents from a socio-technical perspective - Lessons from design, deployment, and enforcement of mechanisms, policies, standards, and regulations - Strategies and guidelines for analysis of intelligence and data from a socio-technical perspective - Marginalized and disadvantaged user groups in the lifecycle of socio-technical systems - Methodologies and methodological reflections in pursuit of these goals *** TYPE OF CONTRIBUTIONS We will accept papers in several formats. All papers must be original contributions and not simultaneously submitted to another workshop, conference, or journal. The following paper formats are welcome: ? Full Papers discussing original research, answering well-defined research questions, and presenting full and stable results; ? Position Papers discussing existing challenges and introducing and motivating new research problems; ? Work-in-Progress Papers describing original but unfinished piece of work, which is nevertheless based on solid research questions or hypotheses . We welcome qualitative and quantitative research approaches from academia and industry. We welcome meta-analytic as well as replication studies and consider them as original research eligible for full papers. We also welcome negative or null results with sound methodology. As in previous years, accepted papers will be published as conference proceedings in the Springer?s Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series. *** PROCEEDINGS The proceedings will be via publication through IEEE Xplore in a volume accompanying the main IEEE EuroS&P '23 proceedings. *** WORKSHOP ORGANIZERS - Giampaolo Bella (University of Catania) - Gabriele Lenzini (University of Luxembourg) *** PROGRAMME CHAIRS - Maryam Mehrnezhad (Royal Holloway University of London, UK) - Ruba Abu-Salma (King?s College London, UK) *** REVIEW AND PUBLICATION Contributions should be submitted electronically via EasyChair (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=stast23).

The privacy and accessibility communities are often distanced from each other. Through our workshop, we hope to bridge these two communities together and discuss shared interests such as reflecting on how identity aspects interact with accessibility and privacy, resolving privacy and accessibility conflicts, and imagining ways to build technologies that are both accessible and privacy-preserving. Our workshop will be held remotely (Zoom) on October 18th from 9 AM to 12 PM (PST). If you are interested in participating, please complete this brief Google form by October 8th (AOE). We hope to create a sustainable community from our workshop to continue collaborative efforts in privacy and accessibility research.

URL: From events at sba-research.org Tue Sep 19 07:19:22 2023 From: events at sba-research.org (SBA Research Events) Date: Tue, 19 Sep 2023 11:19:22 -0000 Subject: [Soups-announce] Extended Deadline - Call for Papers - Special Issue of eJournal of eDemocracy and Open Government (JeDEM) Message-ID: <6dd8a93305574e57ba471de43dafc31f@sba-research.org> Call for Papers Digital Sovereignty - Interdisciplinary insights into digital technology and infrastructure, information privacy and digital security Special Issue of eJournal of eDemocracy and Open Government (JeDEM) In our technologically advanced, multiply connected and increasingly complex world digital space has become an economically, politically, and socially significant domain. As such it falls subject to competing interests of globally dispersed agents, which are exceedingly hard to reconcile, as they may differ immensely with respect to their underlying aims and values. In response to the need to navigate this challenging and potentially hostile environment "digital sovereignty" has emerged as a key issue in recent research and policy development. The concept refers to the capacity for autonomous action within the digital sphere and connects three underlying and equally important dimensions of conscious and deliberate technology utilization: 1. Digital Technology and Infrastructure, 2. Information Privacy and 3. Digital Security. As we rely more and more on digital technologies to facilitate work processes and support communication, we become increasingly dependent on digital infrastructures such as microchips, cloud services, and social media platforms. As a result, their design and structural requirements provide the framework within which various challenges to autonomous agency arise and need to be addressed. Some of these challenges are privacy related and concern the proper collection, storage, handling and dissemination of personal and personally relevant information. They require a purposeful and responsible approach to dealing with data and the development and implementation of appropriate data protection measures. Others relate to security in general. The security dimension has a much wider scope since security challenges can emerge on every level of technological infrastructure and are not limited to vulnerabilities that bear the risk of violating privacy. Network reliability and the integrity of operational processes can be equally at risk. As digital technologies are constantly evolving, resulting in ever more intricate threats to privacy and security, these critical foundations of digital autonomous agency need to be continuously monitored, assessed, and provided for. With this special issue we want to contribute to this endeavor by inviting submissions focusing on (but in no way limited to) the following areas of interest: Normative framework and conceptual foundations for digital sovereignty Implications digital sovereignty measures (or lack thereof) have for functionality, economic viability, innovation, (international) cooperation, and sustainability of governmental, institutional, or economic processes. Requirements of resilience-enhancing measures to increase the availability of systems. Vulnerability of central systems as single points of failure. Reliable assessment of privacy and security risks (Business Impact Analysis, Privacy Impact Analysis) Requirements for and compatibility of realizing different security and/or privacy objectives. Potentials and risks of digital sovereignty measures to influence and shape economic, political, and societal structures (Digital Humanism). Normative requirements on privacy and security measures resulting from digital infrastructure being classified as public good. Unintended effects the implementation of digital sovereignty measures might have. We especially encourage submissions that draw on interdisciplinary perspectives and combine insights from such fields as political science, international relations, law, computer science, sociology, philosophy, and economics. Submissions Guidelines - according to JeDem norms: https://www.jedem.org/index.php/jedem/announcement/view/61 The exstended submission deadline is December 31st, 2023. If you plan to submit, please contact Dr. Johanna Ullrich (jullrich at sba-research.org) or Prof. Edgar Weippl (eweippl at sba-research.org) from SBA Research, Vienna, Austria. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
