Mary Theofanos, NIST computer scientist, May 14, 2009
This week we talk to Mary Theofanos, a computer scientist at the National Institute of Standards and Technology.
She is an expert in the link between usability of systems, human behavior, and security.
She points out that if security systems are designed poorly or are too complex, users will simply find a way to bypass them, and you end up even less secure.
