  1. Trevor Maynard Security Day-to-day: User Strategies for Managing Security as a Practical, Everyday Problem

  2. Overview • Lack of Focus • Goals • Lack of Results • Why your 8th grade English teacher would not accept this paper

  3. Lack of Focus • Security as an everyday matter • Much of what is presented is common sense and not new • Everything from Feng Shui...“The office layout more generally was used as a means of protecting information” • ...to text messaging...“The teens studied never intentionally turned off their phones...”

  4. Lack of Focus • All information presented is relevant to practical security measures • However, the scope of paper is too ambitious to properly relate all discussed issues

  5. Goals Not Met • Stated goal“to understand their [users] experience of security” • The paper lists some user experiences • Does not give a summary of these sentiments for reader to review

  6. Goals Not Met • Stated goal“...to determine what questions we might want to ask.” • Discussion and conclusion do little to inform the reader about how this work relates to this goal

  7. Results? • Semi-structured interviews conducted • Ethnographic study • Only qualitative analysis of selected experienced presented. • No outline of interviews provided • No concise presentation of any sort

  8. Why your 8th grade English teacher would not accept this paper • 5 PhD's wrote this paper.... • ...None bothered to proofread • The majority of pages have multiples spelling errors • Obtuse, run-on sentence and simply bizarre oversights

  9. Why your 8th grade English teacher would not accept this paper • Examples

  10. Conclusion • Paper's focus is lacking • Reads more like a complication of short stories • No comprehensive presentation of results • Authors did not care enough to proofread

  11. Conclusion • If you don't vote reject.... • ...the terrorists win
