Presented under the auspices of the Special Focus on Communication Security and Information Privacy.

This workshop and working group is intended to bring together security and privacy experts with human-computer interaction experts to discuss approaches to developing more usable privacy and security software. The workshop sessions on July 7 and July 8 will include invited talks and discussion. July 9 will feature a "working group" of invited participants who will spend the day identifying important problems, discussing some of the research issues raised during the workshop in more depth, and brainstorming about approaches to future research, collaboration, and more user-centered design of security and privacy software.
