Workshop on Usable IT Security Management (USM '07)

Date: July 18, 2007

Location: Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, PA

The workshop is part of the Symposium on Usable Privacy and Security  
(SOUPS)

USM '07 solicits short position papers from academia and industry  
about all aspects of IT security management usability. The workshop  
will provide an opportunity for interdisciplinary researchers and  
practitioners to discuss this fascinating and important topic. Those  
interested in presenting at the workshop should submit a position  
paper of up to four pages along with a cover letter describing their  
research interests, experience, and background in the area of usable  
IT security management. Workshop papers will be posted on the SOUPS  
website and distributed to attendees on the SOUPS 2007 CD. However,  
workshop papers will not be formally published, and therefore may  
include work the authors plan to publish elsewhere.
