"CyLab Research to Be Presented at 2023 SOUPS"

Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) faculty and students are presenting their research at the 2023 Symposium on Usable Privacy and Security (SOUPS). The event, founded by CyLab Director Lorrie Cranor and first hosted by CMU in 2005, continues bringing together interdisciplinary groups of researchers focused on addressing security, privacy, and human-computer interaction challenges. CyLab has compiled a list of papers co-authored by members of the CyLab Security and Privacy Institute being presented at the event. In one of the papers titled "GuardLens: Supporting Safer Online Browsing for People with Visual Impairments," it is emphasized that visual cues play a significant role in how users assess the privacy/security of a website, but are often inaccessible to people with visual impairments (PVIs), thus exposing them to a disproportionate amount of privacy and security risks. GuardLens is a browser extension that enhances the accessibility of privacy/security cues and helps PVIs determine a website's legitimacy. The browser extension helps PVIs quickly and accurately determine whether websites are legitimate or spoofs by extracting and listing relevant privacy/security cues in one place for faster and easier access. This article continues to discuss the CyLab research being presented at 2023 SOUPS.
