网络钓鱼、个性特征和Facebook
Phishing, Personality Traits and Facebook
摘要:
网络钓鱼攻击已成为对在线用户的日益严重的威胁。最近的研究已经开始关注导致人们对它们做出反应的因素。我们的研究探讨了大五人格特质和电子邮件钓鱼反应之间的相关性。我们还研究了这些因素如何影响用户在Facebook上的行为,包括发布个人信息和选择Facebook隐私设置。我们的研究表明,当使用奖品钓鱼电子邮件时,我们发现性别和对钓鱼电子邮件的响应之间存在很强的相关性。此外,我们发现,神经质是最相关的因素,以回应这封电子邮件。我们的研究还发现,在开放性因素上得分高的人往往在Facebook上发布更多信息,并且隐私设置不太严格,这可能导致他们容易受到隐私攻击。此外,我们的工作检测到参与者估计容易受到网络钓鱼攻击和实际被钓鱼之间没有相关性,这表明对网络钓鱼的敏感性并不是因为缺乏对网络钓鱼风险的认识,而且网络钓鱼的实时响应很难提前预测在线用户。我们相信,更好地了解导致在线漏洞的特征可以帮助开发未来提高用户隐私和安全性的方法。
英文摘要:
Phishing attacks have become an increasing threat to online users. Recent research has begun to focus on the factors that cause people to respond to them. Our study examines the correlation between the Big Five personality traits and email phishing response. We also examine how these factors affect users behavior on Facebook, including posting personal information and choosing Facebook privacy settings. Our research shows that when using a prize phishing email, we find a strong correlation between gender and the response to the phishing email. In addition, we find that the neuroticism is the factor most correlated to responding to this email. Our study also found that people who score high on the openness factor tend to both post more information on Facebook as well as have less strict privacy settings, which may cause them to be susceptible to privacy attacks. In addition, our work detected no correlation between the participants estimate of being vulnerable to phishing attacks and actually being phished, which suggests susceptibility to phishing is not due to lack of awareness of the phishing risks and that realtime response to phishing is hard to predict in advance by online users. We believe that better understanding of the traits which contribute to online vulnerability can help develop methods for increasing users privacy and security in the future.
