Researcher Survey Recruitment Text

Email recruitment
Subject line: Human-centered security research survey
Dear ,
As a human-centered security researcher, your expertise and experience are invaluable in
helping to better connect the research and practitioner communities.
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is conducting an online, anonymous
survey to discover how human-centered security researchers engage and share knowledge with
security and IT practitioners throughout the entire research lifecycle.
It is our hope that the survey results will lead to the creation of mutually beneficial “bridges”
between the human-centered research and practitioner communities that result in
practitioners applying research findings to real-life practice. Importantly, these bridges should
ease much of the burden currently put on researchers when trying to engage and communicate
with practitioners.
We understand that your time is valuable, so the survey should only take about 12 minutes to
complete. Your participation is confidential, and your responses will be anonymous.
Responses will be collected through . Click here to access the survey.
To participate in the survey, you must have experience conducting human-centered security
research. We describe human-centered security as a consideration of the human, social, and
organizational factors – and the interactions between them – related to security processes,
technologies, products, policies, etc.
Contact Julie Haney at julie.haney@nist.gov should you have any questions about the study.
We hope you can participate! Feel free to forward this email to your colleagues who meet the
criteria.
