Professor Angela Sasse, UCL Computer Science

This lecture will explain why most people today struggle with them, and why, contrary to received security wisdom, strong passwords do not necessarily mean good security for stakeholders and organisations. What might be the likely replacement?

UCL (University College London) is consistently ranked among the world's top ten universities (QS World University Rankings 2010 - 2021).
