SOUPS 2008 conference

If you don’t know about the Symposium on Usable Privacy and Security (SOUPS) you probably should. Its a symposium dedicated to research on usable solutions to privacy and security problems. Attendees come to discuss topics ranging from graphical passwords to physical security management systems. I’ve included a description of the conference below. This year SOUPS will feature two workshops Usable IT Security Management (USM ‘08) and The Symposium on Accessible Privacy and Security (SOAPS).
