Towards Privacy-Aware Mobile Device Sharing 4th International Workshop on Security and Privacy in Spontaneous Interaction and Mobile Phone Use (in Conjunction with Pervasive 2012), Newcastle, United Kingdom, June 2012 (bib) |
Modern smartphones are loaded with sensitive data. At the same time, there are situations, in which a user must share or wants to share the device with others. Since common authentication methods still follow a single-sign-on approach, new privacy issues arise. We argue that sharing cannot always be avoided and thus should be supported by refined authentication systems. Our assumption is based on the findings of a focus group that we conducted to get insights about sharing practices, privacy threats and need for protection. |
