Agnieszka Kitkowska
Karlstad University, Sweden
Biography
Agnieszka Kitkowska is a postdoctoral researcher at Service Research Centre (CTF) at Karlstad University, Sweden. She has a multidisciplinary background, holding a Master's degree in Computing from Edinburgh Napier University, Scotland, and a Master's degree in History of Art and Culture from the University of Nicolaus Copernicus in Torun, Poland. She obtained her Ph.D. in Computer Science from Karlstad University. Agnieszka's doctoral research focused on investigating privacy-related decisions. In particular, on different factors that affect the relationship between attitude and behavior. Her Ph.D. was a part of the EU-funded Privacy&Us Innovative Training Network, enabling international collaborations through regular meetings with project participants and work at different academic and industrial institutions. Her research interests range from building usable and transparent privacy displays based on techniques combining HCI, psychology, and behavioral sciences, to user research beyond the field of privacy.

Karen Renaud
University of Strathclyde

She collaborates with researchers in South Africa, Germany, Denmark, Australia, Italy, Zimbabwe and across the United States of America.

Peter Y A Ryan
University of Luxembourg
Biography
Peter Y A Ryan is full Professor of Applied Security at the University of Luxembourg since 2009. Since joining the University of Luxembourg he has grown the APSIA group that is now around 20 strong. He has around 30 years of experience in cryptography, information assurance and formal verification. He pioneered the application of process calculi to modelling and analysis of secure systems, firstly the characterization of non-interference and later to the analysis of crypto protocols. He initiated and led the “Modelling and Analysis of Security Protocols” project, in collaboration with researchers in Oxford an Royal Holloway, that pioneered the application of process algebra (CSP) and model-checking tools (FDR) to the analysis of security protocols. He has published extensively on cryptography, cryptographic protocols, security policies, mathematical models of computer security and, most recently, voter-verifiable election systems. He is the (co-)creator of several innovative, verifiable voting schemes: Prêt à Voter, Pretty Good Democracy, vVote system (based on Prêt à Voter that was used successfully in Victoria State in November 2015), Caveat Coercitor, Selene, Electryo and Hyperion. With Feng Hao, he also developed the OpenVote boardroom voting scheme and the J-PAKE password based authenticated key establishment protocol. He and his team also work on quantum and “post-quantum” information assurance and the socio-technical aspects of security and trust.
