MOTIVATION & GOALS
Millions of users across different continents and countries are
daily engaged with privacy and security tasks which are
indispensable in modern information systems and services. Such
tasks are commonly related to user authentication, human
interaction proofs (e.g., captcha), privacy and security pop-up
dialogs, setting privacy and security features within online user
profiles, etc. Recent privacy and security incidents of famous
online services have once more underpinned the necessity towards
further investigating and improving current approaches and
practices related to the design of efficient and effective privacy
and security. In order to achieve this objective, one possible
direction is related to providing adaptive and personalized
characteristics to privacy- and security-related user tasks, given
the diversity of the user characteristics (like cultural,
cognitive, age, habits), the technology (like standalone, mobile,
mixed-virtual-augmented reality, wearables) and interaction
contexts of use (like being on the move, social settings, spatial
limitations). Hence, adaptive and personalized privacy and
security implies the ability of an interactive system or service
to support its end-users, who are engaged in privacy- and/or
security-related tasks, based on user models which describe in a
holistic way what constitutes the user’s physical, technological
and interaction context in which computation takes place.
APPS 2021 aims to bring together researchers and practitioners
working on diverse topics related to understanding and improving
the usability of privacy and security software and systems, by
applying user modeling, adaptation and personalization principles.
Our special focus in 2021 will be on challenges and opportunities
related to the Covid-19 outbreak for ensuring privacy and security
of users' interactions in online systems (like challenges for
online distance learning, e-Government, e-Commerce, the need for
touchless authentication, etc.).
The workshop will address the following objectives:
- increase our understanding and knowledge on supporting usable
privacy and security interaction design through novel user
modeling mechanisms and adaptive user interfaces;
- discuss methods and techniques for understanding user attitudes
and perceptions towards privacy and security issues in various
application areas;
- identify human-centered models for the design, development and
evaluation of adaptive and personalized privacy and security
systems;
- discuss methods for evaluating the impact and added value of
adaptation and personalization in privacy and security systems.
TOPICS OF INTEREST
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Privacy and security in smart patient-centric healthcare systems
- Adaptation and personalization approaches in usable privacy and
security
- Effects of human factors (e.g., cognition, personality, etc.) in
privacy and security systems
- Novel user interaction concepts and user interfaces for
achieving usable security
- Cultural diversity in usable privacy and security
- Context-aware privacy and security
- Adaptive usable security in various domains such as healthcare,
IoT, automotive
- Trust perceived in patient-centric healthcare systems
- Perceived security and usability in patient-centric healthcare
systems
- Adaptive user authentication policies
- Novel approaches to the design and evaluation of usable security
systems
- Lessons learned from the deployment and use of usable privacy
and security features
- Ethical considerations in adaptive and personalized privacy and
security
PAPER SUBMISSION & PUBLICATION
All workshop papers must contain original, previously unpublished,
research work adhering the two publication types:
- Full research papers (10 pages, incl. references), proposing new
approaches, innovative methods and research findings.
- Short research papers (7 pages, incl. references), presenting
works in progress, lessons learned, emerging or future research
issues and directions on topics related to APPS.
Manuscripts should be formatted according to the new workflow and
template for ACM publications
