How Much Security
•Security is costly—buy only what you need
–You pay mainly in inconvenience
–If there’s no punishment, you pay a lot
•People do behave this way
•We don’t tell them this—a big mistake
•The best is the enemy of the good
–Perfect security is the worst enemy of real security
•Feasible security
–Costs less than the value it protects
–Simple enough for users to manage
–Simple enough for vendors to implement
