As stated in R&D vision, "security is about mechanisms", which are normally implemented at a low level and are directly related to methods and algorithms for protecting information and systems, whereas "trust is about intelligence" and more subjective practices and uses. As such, we incorporate intelligent mechanisms that increase global trust through the representation and display of information in the graphical user interfaces (GUI). This improves the ergonomics for graphical and service interfaces and how users and applications interact with the systems (machines). Global trust and security in a system are only as strong as the weakest link in the chain, which in most cases is the human user; specifically, the non-expert user. This is often because users lack the advanced knowledge required to operate the tools—both administrator users who configure and manage the complexity of system security and consumer users who make use of the tools. In this area of R&D, Safelayer is researching and looking for representation and display methods and other ergonomic elements that simplify the human user's task in security and trust. We strongly believe that maximizing this factor means maximizing the system's global trust. |
