| Abstract: | Humans are “smart components” in a system, but cannot
be directly programmed to perform; rather, their autonomy
must be respected as a design constraint and incentives
provided to induce desired behavior. Sometimes these
incentives are properly aligned, and the humans don’t represent
a vulnerability. But often, a misalignment of incentives
causes a weakness in the system that can be exploited by
clever attackers. Incentive-centered design tools help us understand
these problems, and provide design principles to
alleviate them. We describe incentive-centered design and
some tools it provides. We provide a number of examples
of security problems for which Incentive Centered Design
might be helpful. We elaborate with a general screening
model that offers strong design principles for a class of security
problems. |
