Description:
The user-generated, interconnected Social Web is ripe for the plucking by criminals and other malicious users. We'll demonstrate how psychology and user experience have as much to do with security as coding and sysadmin skills, and how to apply all of them to protect your users.
Questions
Answered:
  1. Why do I need to care about security?
  2. What trust do my users put in me?
  3. How seriously do I need to take the security of my user's data?
  4. How does human behavior affect security?
  5. What is change blindness?
  6. How do I design interfaces that maintain security?
  7. What is "need to know," and how do I apply it?
  8. What is "defense in depth" and how do I apply it?
  9. Who can I trust?
  10. Why is the social web a bigger security risk?
