The Effect of Semantic Elaboration on the Perceived Security and Privacy Risk of Privacy-ABCs — An Empirical Experiment
Abstract
Privacy-ABCs are elegant techniques to deliver secure yet privacy-enhanced authentication solutions. The cryptography behind them enables new capabilities, such as selective disclosure of attributes, set membership, and predicates over attributes, which many of them were never experienced by typical users before. Even if the users intuitively accept the existence of such features, they may not be still ready to perceive the semantic of such a proof within the context of authentication. In this work, we argue that additional information is necessary to support the user understand the semantic of their operations. We present the results of our empirical experiment on investigating the effect of providing such a support during authentication with Privacy-ABCs on the perceived security and privacy risk of the users.
