The TIPPI Point: Toward Trustworthy Interfaces

The Trustworthy Interfaces for Passwords and Personal Information workshop brought security and user interface professionals together to determine ways to improve authentication methods so that users won´t be tricked by phishers into giving away personal information. The authors consider some of the themes discussed at TIPPI, including the nature of the authentication problem, systems that might help solve it, and other observations on necessary components of secure systems designed for human users.
