A Typology of Perceived Triggers for End-User Security and Privacy Behaviors
summary
Survey of 852 MTurk respondents reports 1,947 recent S&P behavior changes and classifies the immediate prompts: social triggers drive 39% of events, proactive triggers 34%, forced triggers 26%. Behaviors include updating device authentication, installing security apps, changing passwords, and adjusting Facebook privacy. Low-to-medium security behavioral intention users show highest reliance on social prompts, and socially triggered changes are four times more likely to be shared. Design takeaways: enable social sharing, expand beyond warnings, and personalize trigger types.
