Elsevier are holding their first conference on human factors in information security in London on 22nd-24th February 2010. What's interesting is that it combines academic excellence and practical business experience. Very few conferences on this subject have been held, and they have generally been designed primarily for academic researchers. It's encouraging that the UK is hosting this conference as it sits somewhere between the US and Continental Europe in it's appetite for the subject. Hopefully it will set the scene for further conferences on this important subject.
