Security Awareness for User Authentication:  Passwords and Beyond

October is National Cyber Security Awareness Month. Among the many

possible themes and messages for end users during October is advice and

tips on effective password management. For many identity architects and

security professionals, we have grown tired of the reliance on passwords

and the need to educate users on good password practices. Nonetheless,

effective password management remains a critical area of cybersecurity

awareness and there are new and emerging opportunities for authentication

that will require security training or awareness for staff as well as

users. This session will provide an overview of campus security awareness

efforts designed to improve user authentication experiences. Please bring

your questions, ideas, and best practices to this session as well.

Host and Moderator: Rodney Petersen, EDUCAUSE

Presenters:

Password Best Practices and User Awareness ­ Cathy Hubbs, American

University

Passphrase Vaulting ­ Tom Davis, Indiana University

Beyond Passwords:  Two-Factor and Other Emerging Techniques ­ Bob
