  • ESSAY Untangling Attribution David D. Clark* and Susan Landau**
    ESSAY Untangling Attribution David D. Clark* and Susan Landau** I. Introduction In February 2010, former Director of the National Security Agency Mike McConnell wrote, "We need to develop an early-warning system to monitor cyberspace, identify intrusions and locate the source of attacks with a trail of evidence that can support diplomatic, military and legal options and we must be able to do this in milliseconds. More specifically, we need to reengineer the Internet to make attribution, geolocation, intelligence analysis and impact assessment - who did it, from where, why and what was the result - more manageable."I The Internet was not designed with the goal of deterrence in mind, and perhaps a future Internet should be designed differently. McConnell's statement is part of a recurring theme that a secure Internet must provide better attribution for actions occurring on the network. Although attribution generally means assigning a cause to an action, as used here attribution refers to identifying the agent responsible for the action (specifically, "determining * David Clark, Senior Research Scientist, MIT, Cambridge MA 02139, ddc acsail.mit.edu.

  • Reality Is Broken a Why Games Make Us Better and How They Can Change the World E JANE Mcgonigal
    Reality Is Broken a Why Games Make Us Better and How They Can Change the World E JANE McGONIGAL THE PENGUIN PRESS New York 2011 ADVANCE PRAISE FOR Reality Is Broken “Forget everything you know, or think you know, about online gaming. Like a blast of fresh air, Reality Is Broken blows away the tired stereotypes and reminds us that the human instinct to play can be harnessed for the greater good. With a stirring blend of energy, wisdom, and idealism, Jane McGonigal shows us how to start saving the world one game at a time.” —Carl Honoré, author of In Praise of Slowness and Under Pressure “Reality Is Broken is the most eye-opening book I read this year. With awe-inspiring ex­ pertise, clarity of thought, and engrossing writing style, Jane McGonigal cleanly exploded every misconception I’ve ever had about games and gaming. If you thought that games are for kids, that games are squandered time, or that games are dangerously isolating, addictive, unproductive, and escapist, you are in for a giant surprise!” —Sonja Lyubomirsky, Ph.D., professor of psychology at the University of California, Riverside, and author of The How of Happiness: A Scientific Approach to Getting the Life You Want “Reality Is Broken will both stimulate your brain and stir your soul. Once you read this remarkable book, you’ll never look at games—or yourself—quite the same way.” —Daniel H. Pink, author of Drive and A Whole New Mind “The path to becoming happier, improving your business, and saving the world might be one and the same: understanding how the world’s best games work.

Angela Sasse, Ph.D. Charles K. Barlowe, PhD Dean of Graduate Studies Abstract A secure system that cannot be used by real users to secure real-world processes is not really secure at all. While many believe that usability and security are diametrically opposed, a growing body of research from the field of Human-Computer Interaction and Security (HCISEC) refutes this assumption. All researchers in this field agree that focusing on aligning usability and security goals can enable the design of systems that will be more secure under actual usage.

How can we make use of all of this rich sensor and behavioral data to improve our lives? At the same time, this same data poses many new kinds of risks. How can we make privacy and security easily understandable by people who are not experts? How can we ensure that machine learning models built on this data is fair, accountable, transparent, and ethical? In my research, I draw on ideas and methods from human‐computer interaction, systems, behavioral sciences, and machine learning. Most of my current work centers on smartphones and the emerging Internet of Things. I also make use of data from crowdsourcing or social media, both to better understand people’s behaviors as well as to “outsource” the labor required to manage privacy and security.
