[Thomas Gross]

STAST 2019

9th International Workshop on Socio-Technical Aspects in SecuriTy

26th September 2019, Luxembourg City, Luxembourg
http://stast.uni.lu/index.html

Affiliated with the European Symposium on Research in Computer Security
(ESORICS 2019)
https://esorics2019.uni.lu/

Submission Deadline:   30th June 2019

Goals

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.

Workshop Topics

Contributions should focus on the interplay of technical, organizational and human factors in breaking and in achieving computer security, for example:

   Usability and user experience in security
   Requirements for socio-technical systems
   Feasibility of policies from the socio-technical perspective
   Threat models that combine technical and human-centered strategies
   Socio-technical factors in decision making in security and privacy
   Balance between technical measures and social strategies
   Studies of real-world security incidents socio-technical perspective
   Social factors in organizations security policies and processes
   Lessons from design and deployment of security mechanisms and policies
   Models of user behaviour and user interactions with technology
   Perceptions of security, risk, and their influence on humans
   Interplay of law, ethics and politics with security and privacy measures
   Social engineering, persuasion, and other deception techniques
   Socio-technical analysis of security incidents
   Strategies, methodology and guidelines cyber-security intelligence analysis

Type of contributions

   Full Papers, discussing original research, answering well-defined research questions, and presenting full and stable results;
   Position Papers, original contributions discussing existing challenges and introducing and motivating new research problems;
   Case Studies, describing lessons learned from design and deployment of security mechanisms and policies in research and in industry.
   Work in Progress, describing original but unfinished research, which is nevertheless based on solid research questions or hypothesis soundly argued be innovative compared with the state of the art.

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 welcome negative or null results with sound methodology.

Proceedings

Accepted papers will be published as post-proceedings with Springer in their Lecture Notes in Computer Science series (final approval pending).
