Interdisciplinary Research Group in Socio-technical CybersecurityStudies in Socio-Technical Security Analysis: Authentication of Identities with TLS CertificatesAna Ferreira, Rosario Giustolisi, Jean-Louis Huynen, Vincent Koenig, Gabriele LenziniAbstract:Authenticating web identities with TLS certificates is a typical problem whose security depends on both technical and human aspects, and that needs, to be fully grasped, a socio-technical analysis. We performed … Continued

Interdisciplinary Research Group in Socio-technical CybersecurityOn Tools for Socio-Technical Security AnalysisFerreira Ana, Giustolisi Rosario, Huynen Jean-Louis, Lenzini GabrieleAbstract:Many systems are hacked daily and apparently without much effort. This happens because hackers prefer not to break security mechanisms immediately, but rather to target unguarded components first. Such components, e.g., users and human-computer ceremonies, are hacked by … Continued
