I'm in Cambridge University, at the tenth [Workshop on Security and Human Behavior](). SHB is a small invitational gathering of people studying various aspects of the human side of security, organized each year by Ross Anderson, Alessandro Acquisti, and myself. The 50 or so people in the room include psychologists, economists, computer security researchers, sociologists, political scientists, political scientists, neuroscientists, designers, lawyers, philosophers, anthropologists, business school professors, and a smattering of others. It's not just an interdisciplinary event; most of the people here are individually interdisciplinary. The goal is maximum interaction and discussion. We do that by putting everyone on panels. There are eight six-person panels over the course of the two days. Everyone gets to talk for ten minutes about their work, and then there's half an hour of questions and discussion. We also have lunches, dinners, and receptions -- all designed so people from different disciplines talk to each other. It's the most intellectually stimulating conference of my year, and influences my thinking about security in many different ways. This year's schedule is [here](). [This page]() lists the participants and includes links to some of their work. As he does every year, Ross Anderson is [liveblogging the talks](). Here are my posts on the [first](), [second](), [third](), [fourth](), [fifth](), [sixth](), [seventh](), [eighth](), and [ninth]() SHB workshops. Follow those links to find summaries, papers, and occasionally audio recordings of the various workshops. I don't think any of us imagined that this conference would be around this long.
