Symposium On Usable Privacy and Security

The sixth Symposium on Usable Privacy and Security (SOUPS) will be held July 14-16, 2010 at Microsoft in Redmond, WA. This symposium will bring together an interdisciplinary group of researchers and practitioners in human computer interaction, security, and privacy. The program features technical papers, workshops and tutorials, a poster session, panels and invited talks, and discussion sessions. SOUPS 2010 will be held in cooperation with ACM SIGCHI.

SOUPS 2010 will be held on the Microsoft campus. Accommodations have been reserved for SOUPS attendees at a nearby hotel.

SOUPS 2010 will be co-located with the Collaboration, Electronic messaging, Anti-Abuse and Spam Conference (CEAS 2010), which will be held on July 13 and 14.

Not Your Typical Conference

SOUPS distinguishes itself from other conferences by both providing a high quality technical program and by bringing together an interdisciplinary group of attendees in a format conducive to informal discussion and networking. SOUPS offers reasonable registration fees, which include meals catered by local restaurants featuring a variety of cuisines. Past attendees have raved about "the amazing group of people who were here to talk with" and the "awesome food." One past attendee wrote: "Overall, this is the best conference I've attended. I may be ruined forever going to SIGCHI and other larger conferences."
