The first annual conference, which emerged by combining two successful events will be held on 2-3 September, 2026, University of Luxembourg, Belval Campus. The main focus areas of the event are research and discussion of issues related human-computer interactions (HCI), security, and privacy.
About the conference
Successful attacks on information systems rarely target technology alone. They also exploit the human element from insecure user behaviour and poorly designed interfaces to unclear or unrealistic security policies. Addressing security effectively therefore requires more than reducing technical vulnerabilities; it demands a clear understanding of user needs, behaviours, and contexts. Technology designers and policy-makers must take these human factors into account to build truly secure systems.
This new conference brings together two well-established events in socio-technical, user-centred privacy and security: European Symposium on Usable Security (EuroUSEC) and International Workshop on Socio-Technical Aspects in Security (STAST). By combining their strengths, the conference aims to unite researchers and practitioners from a wide range of disciplines, including computer science, engineering, psychology, social sciences, and economics. It provides a forum to present research and to discuss the human-computer interaction challenges that shape security and privacy today.
