Integration of security and HCI in courses

Abstract

It is essential to consider the security and privacy (SYP) of information as part of the development of technological solutions and special attention when a large majority of people need to access the internet to carry out their daily activities. Despite the importance of SyP, this article shows that topics related to security and privacy are scarce in HCI courses and that only some universities offer specific courses that integrate usability and security. Additionally, information is presented on topics that the universities include in their courses to have a starting point that serves as a reference to integrate current courses and in this way teach those responsible for generating technological solutions on usable security.
