MINITRACK DESCRIPTION

Minitrack 6: Social Engineering, Human Security, and their Organizational Impact

Data breaches and cybersecurity incidents are repeatedly in the news on a daily basis. While there has been massive advancement in information systems security over the last four decades in the development of very sophisticated detection/prevention systems, unfortunately, systems continue to be breached. It is well known that humans can represent a weak link in cybersecurity. Thus, the aim of this mini-track is to investigate the aspects related to research in social engineering, human security, human error in cybersecurity, and their impact on organizations.

This mini-track provides an opportunity for researchers in the area of social engineering and human security to share their insights with others who have similar interests. A particular focus will be placed on research investigating the aspects of social engineering, human security, human error in cybersecurity, phishing/whaling, business e-mail compromise, and their impact on organizations.

This mini-track calls for both fully developed, high-quality research, or work-in-progress research papers with promising perspectives on social engineering, human security, and their impact on organizations. Research studies are utilizing a wide variety of theoretical foundations, study designs, and research approaches are welcome.

Topics of interest to this minitrack include but are not limited to:

* Social engineering
* Human security
* Human error in cybersecurity
* Phishing/Spear-Phishing/Whaling
* Vishing and impersonation for social engineering attacks
* Human aspects of Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs)
* Business e-mail compromise
* Organizational losses due to social engineering attacks
* Human security penetration testing
* Organizational impacts of cyber-attacks and human compromise
* Human-centric security safeguards
* Ethical aspects in cybersecurity
