Great keynote!
Security-Centered Design: Exploring the Impact of Human Behavior
Chris Shiflett (Jun 12, 2010 at 09:30)
Keynote at Dutch PHP Conference 2010 (English - UK)
Security is more than filtering input and escaping output (FIEO), and it's more than cross-site scripting (XSS) and cross-site request forgeries (CSRF). Security isn't even always black and white. In order to create a more secure user experience, we need to understand how people think. Perception is as important as reality, and meeting user expectations is a fundamental of good security. In this multifarious talk, I'll explore topics such as change blindness and ambient signifiers, and I'll show some real-world examples that demonstrate the profound impact human behavior can have on security.

I liked how Chris pointed out the various pitfalls of commonly accepted uxp principles, and how you need to come up with creative solutions to these challenges. Not unimportant: the talk was very entertaining.

Just as good as PHP London 09! Although I didn't see the change this time! Brilliant speaker and interesting points!

Second time I see this talk and I still absolutely love it. Is it about PHP? No ! Is it important for people involved with PHP? Yes !
I like the very relaxed, confident, but humble style Chris brings to the stage. The slides look good , but even cooler: they allow crowd interaction and there even some videos involved.
My favorite talk so far because it also deals with people rather than just technology.

I can only second everyone else. Excellent keynote providing food for thought.

Really entertaining keynote, fun way to bring a less fun (imho) topic.

Great and entertaining presentation which my coworkers should have seen. Nice to let the audience participate.
The only minor downside for me personally was I already knew the Amazing Color Changing Card trick and had already thought about this clip during the presentation before it was mentioned. Always a pleasure to see it again though.

Saw the Amazing Color Changing Card trick before as well.
Still great presentation and worthy of being a keynote.

Nothing much to add, except: great presentation, and glad i'm not clearly visible on the photo of the attendants.

The best talk I ever attended so far. I liked many things about it. To point out just a few: Chris has a very calm and clear voice that makes it very easy to stay focussed. He not just made his points but also proved them in a strong way. The selection of images and examples was engaging. When I look back at it I still smile.

There is a lot of information I can use here ;-) I hope to find the video about the card deck trick.

This was the best keynote I have ever seen. Although it wasn't technical at all, it showed us all something that we surely need to know but just don't come up with between the UML'ing and programming.
Although I was working on my own presentation I listened carefully and sometimes even looked up because I actually didn't want to miss this one.

There's a reason this was a keynote talk - it was EXCELLENT.
It's not often you get to be so involved with a talk. Highlight of the event for me.
