[$] Design for security

Serena Chen began her talk in the Security, Identity & Privacy miniconf at linux.conf.au 2019 with a plan to dispel a pervasive myth that "usability and security are mutually exclusive". She hoped that by the end of her talk, she could convince the audience that the opposite is true: good user experience design and good security cannot exist without each other. It makes sense, she said, because a secure system must be reliable and controllable, which means it must be usable, while a usable system must be less confusing, thus it is more secure.
