abstract |
The rapid development of online learning is opening up many new learning opportunities.
Yet, with this increased potential come a myriad of risks. Usable security systems
are essential as poor usability in security can result in excluding intended users
while allowing sensitive data to be released to unacceptable recipients. This chapter
presents findings concerned with usability for two security issues: authentication
mechanisms and privacy. Usability issues such as memorability, feedback, guidance,
context of use and concepts of information ownership are reviewed within various environments.
This chapter also reviews the roots of these usability difficulties in the culture
clash between the non-user-oriented perspective of security and the information exchange
culture of the education domain. Finally an account is provided of how future systems
can be developed which maintain security and yet are still usable. |
