Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Information security is a socio-technical property where a lot of traditional efforts has been placed in the technical domain. Security has been seen as a technical challenge and the solutions has been technical. However, it is well known that human behavior plays a key role in information security and the user is often seen as the weakest link in the security chain. As such, information security is a socio-technical property where the social, or human side needs increased attention. Security training is commonly suggested as the way to improve user behavior but the effects of various training efforts is also under-researched. This paper demonstrates how ContextBased MicroTraining (CBMT) can be implemented and performs a usability evaluation of that implementation. CBMT is a method for information security training which has been developed over years of research. The paper demonstrates that the CBMT method can aid in the development of highly usable security training. The paper also emphasizes the need for user centered design in development of security software intended for end-users.
