ABOUT SHAMAL FAILY
My research explores how both security and usability can be designed into software systems. In doing so, my work not only provides assurance that security is incorporated into the design of software, but that the software will continue to be secure when used in different physical, social, and cultural contexts of use.I am interested in the role of usability models for providing assurance about a system’s design, and particularly interested in exploring how personas - a popular technique focussing on archetypes of user behaviour - can be used to support secure system design.I am also interested in the role of tool-support in designing secure and usable systems. I maintain CAIRIS (Computer Aided Integration of Requirements and Information Security): an open-source security requirements management tool that is freely available under an Apache License. CAIRIS has been validated in several industry case studies, and has been extended to facilitate model interchange with complementary tools to explore the social aspects of cybersecurity in system design.
