Abstract
In this work we survey the findings in social psychology and philosophy with respect to trust. We introduce three
hypotheses that remain unanswered with respect to the manner in which humans react to computers. We discuss potential
design revisions in light of findings from other disciplines. Then we conclude by noting that research which empowers
users in order to be their own security manager may be based on a fundamentally flawed view of human-computer
interaction. We close by encouraging designers of computer security systems to examine the humans, which these
systems are intended to empower, and recommend that any security system be built on the basis of understanding of
human trust provided by the social sciences.
