Usable security and privacy

Evaluating and modelling the user behaviour with respect to security and privacy related IT-systems

This research group aims to evaluate and model user behaviour when using security and privacy related IT-systems. This is achieved by designing experiments to evaluate the behaviour, analyzing influencing factors and modelling the user behaviour and the influencing factors.
