Title

Good Usability Delivers Tighter Security

Abstract

The modern world of work would be almost inconceivable without the support of IT systems. Connected systems and IT solutions also continue to make inroads into our private lives. Consider, for example, intelligent heating controls (smart home systems), which have gained in importance in the current energy crisis. This trend is being accelerated by more and more people coming into direct contact with IT solutions. Among other areas, Professor Dr. Andreas Heinemann (Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences/InCUPS, his Steinbeis Transfer Center for Internet Communication, Usability, Privacy, and Security) specializes in IT security and usability. This involves investigating how to mitigate cyber risk.
