Two requirements for usable and secure software engineering.

Faily, Shamal

Abstract

Despite the acknowledged need for systems to be both usable and secure, we lack guidance on how developers might build such systems. Based on recent research, we believe evidence exists that blending techniques from Security, Usability, and Software Engineering can lead to effective design processes for building such systems. In this position paper, we discuss two requirements that need to be satisfied before blending can occur: treat Security and Usability as complementary, and provide convincing tools for developers.
