“…Data Disclosure to the PPA: In general, study participants are more willing to share data with their PPA if they see a direct benefit to it, which is in line with previous research [15,20]. In general, participants demand that their PPA be as data-sparse as possible so that it does not become a privacy threat itself.…”

Personal Privacy Assistants (PPAs) can support users in managing their privacy. Conducting a user study, we provide qualitative and quantitative insights into how users imagine their PPA and how PPAs designs can appear for different user groups. We highlight five aspects derived from the literature that are essential when designing a PPA: What features should the PPA have? How should the PPA learn the users’ preferences? What level of user involvement in its decisions should the PPAs have? Which vendor should offer the PPA? What data are users willing to disclose to their PPA? Our results provide a holistic view of user perceptions of PPAs. We identify two user groups that differ in their characteristics, such as technology affinity and privacy concerns, and have different ideas of a PPA in terms of automation level and provider, for example. We discuss our results in relation to the literature and derive recommendations for designing PPAs to fulfill user needs.

“…Research shows that certain user data, e. g., extracted from Facebook posts [44], can be helpful to build a user profile and thus creating a helpful PPA. However, users are not always willing to share their data and differentiate which data they share and with whom [20].…”

“…The reviewed literature suggests that the majority of the public will be oblivious to connected places [17], let alone desirable security behaviors within them [8,18]. At the same time, public perceptions and security behaviors in connected places are being influenced by different elements: the value offered by connected place technology [19]; the clarity of risks and security procedures communicated [20,21]; the ability to express concerns and participation in design and development [17,[21][22][23]; perceptions of privacy and risk [13,23,24]; trustworthiness [8,9,16,25]; and the type and purpose of data collection [18,23].…”

“…However, the wide-ranging pre-existing levels of awareness amongst public users of connected places use a one-size-fits-all approach for the explanation of security and privacy issues, which is challenging. For example, many members of the public have a good understanding of network and data security processes but with low awareness of threats [26], or the information being shared by their devices in a connected place [8,18].…”

“…The privacy factors affecting a user's perception of security are (a) the purpose for which data is collected, i.e., (a.1) service or surveillance [23]; (a.2) personal or impersonal [23]; (b) the context that data sharing is taking place within, e.g., users are more willing to share data in the event of a friend being endangered [18]; and (c) who is collecting data, e.g., the government [13].…”

How Do Public Perceptions Affect the Security of Connected Places? A Systematic Literature Review

This systematic literature review explores the scholarly debate around public perceptions and behaviors in the context of cybersecurity in connected places. It reveals that, while many articles highlight the importance of public perceptions and behaviors during a cyberattack, there is no unified consensus on how to influence them in order to minimize the attack’s impact and expedite recovery. Public perceptions can affect the success and sustainability of connected places; however, exactly how and to what extent remains unknown. We argue that more research is needed on the mechanisms to assess the influence of public perceptions and associated behaviors on threats to security in connected places. Furthermore, there is a need to investigate the models and tools currently being deployed by connected place design and management to understand and influence public perceptions and behaviors. Lastly, we identify the requirements to investigate the complex relationship between the public and connected place managers, define all stakeholders clearly, and explore the patterns between specific connected place cybersecurity incidents and the methods used to transform public perceptions.

When considering privacy, context, and environmental circumstances can have a strong influence on individual decisions and user behavior. Especially in crises or threatening situations, privacy may conflict with other values, such as personal safety and health. In other cases, personal or public safety can also be dependent on privacy: the context of flight shows how, for those affected, the value of data protection can increase as a result of an increased threat situation. Thus, when individual sovereignty—the autonomous development of one’s own will—or safety is highly dependent on information flows, people tend to be more protective of their privacy in order to maintain their information sovereignty. But also, the context of agriculture, as part of the critical infrastructure, shows how privacy concerns can affect the adoption of digital tools. With these two examples, flight and migration as well as agriculture, this chapter presents some exemplary results that illustrate the importance of the influence of situational factors on perceived information sovereignty and the evaluation of privacy.
