Gute Software erkennt man nicht daran, wie durchdacht sie entwickelt wurde – sondern daran, wie mühelos sie genutzt werden kann. Es gibt einen fundamentalen Unterschied zwischen dem Planen und dem Benutzen von Software. Wir beziehen uns auf Daniel Kahnemans Konzept von System 1 und System 2 und erklären, warum gerade im Design digitaler Produkte der Perspektivwechsel entscheidend ist: Wer Software entwirft, denkt bewusst, langsam und analytisch – wer sie nutzt, braucht schnelle, intuitive Lösungen.Warum Komplexität in der Realität kein Freifahrtschein für komplizierte Interfaces ist, und wie gutes UX-Design dabei hilft, auch anspruchsvolle Prozesse einfach bedienbar zu machen. Denn echte Nutzerfreundlichkeit entsteht nicht durch zusätzliche Funktionen, sondern durch ein tiefes Verständnis für menschliches Verhalten.

In beiden Modi nur das Beste wünschen…Chris & Alex

In part 2 of a critical two-part series, Etienne Nichols and regulatory affairs expert Mike Drues explore the nuanced pathway of switching a medical device from prescription (Rx) to over-the-counter (OTC). This episode dives deep into what triggers a new submission, how usability testing and human factors play an expanded role for lay users, and the regulatory logic that guides these transitions. The conversation highlights the importance of aligning regulatory strategy with business goals, and offers practical insights on leveraging real-world evidence, understanding the limits of FDA databases, and optimizing pre-submission meetings.Key Timestamps02:10 – Starting from a cleared 510(k): Do you need a new submission for OTC?06:45 – Implications of removing the healthcare provider from the equation12:00 – Risk management: Expanding risk profiles when lay users are involved18:15 – When a 510(k) becomes a De Novo or PMA22:50 – Usability testing and the risk of user error in OTC devices31:20 – Clinical investigations and good clinical practices (GCPs)36:00 – Real-world evidence vs. real-world data—what's usable?41:30 – Using Pre-Subs effectively and what “quality data” really means47:10 – Labeling, cleaning, and UDI for OTC products53:40 – OTC software and digital health—when is it a regulated device?01:00:00 – Summary: Aligning regulatory logic with common sense and business strategyQuotes“With an OTC device, we are taking the healthcare professional totally, completely, and utterly out of the loop.”– Mike DruesThis quote encapsulates the core regulatory challenge in moving a device to OTC: every element, from labeling to usability, must assume zero clinical supervision.“If the clinical trial won't tell you anything you don't already know from good real-world evidence, why spend the time and money?”– Mike DruesA powerful argument for using well-documented real-world evidence over unnecessary trials—provided the data truly meets evidentiary standards.Top TakeawaysLabel Expansion ≠ Shortcut: Moving from prescription to OTC usually requires a new submission—especially when removing the healthcare provider introduces new risks.Usability Testing Is Critical: OTC usability studies must go beyond IFU comprehension to include risk of misuse, poor device selection, and user decision-making.Real-World Evidence Can Help—If It's Clean: Real-world data isn't always usable. FDA will expect reproducibility, traceability, and strong justifications.Labeling & Design Must Assume No Clinical Oversight: Cleaning procedures, warnings, and directions must all be validated for home use and layperson comprehension.Use Pre-Subs Wisely: Especially for label expansions or gray-area digital health tools, pre-subs provide critical alignment with FDA and prevent costly errors.References & ResourcesEtienne Nichols on LinkedInFDA Guidance on Real-World Evidence for Regulatory Decision-MakingGreenlight Guru Webinar: What is and Isn't a Regulated Medical Device (feat.

Dr. Jason R.C. Nurse, Associate Professor in Cybersecurity at the University of Kent and Director of Science and Research at CybSafe, joins ITSPmagazine at RSAC 2025 to discuss how people's attitudes shape their cybersecurity behaviors—at home, at work, and everywhere in between.Drawing from a global survey of over 7,000 individuals, Dr. Nurse presents data that reveals a fundamental challenge: while many individuals recognize the importance of cybersecurity, a significant number also find it intimidating and frustrating. Nearly 43% of participants shared that they feel overwhelmed by security measures, highlighting a persistent disconnect between the intent of security protocols and the lived experience of users.This disconnect manifests in inconsistent behaviors. At home, people may take extra precautions to protect their personal lives and families. At work, however, there's a tendency to outsource responsibility to the employer. This duality—heightened vigilance in personal spaces and relaxed caution in professional environments—creates vulnerabilities in a world where attackers don't care where the device or user happens to be.The conversation emphasizes the need to rethink how we approach cybersecurity education, awareness, and design. Dr. Nurse advocates for a “usable security” model—systems that protect users without demanding overly technical knowledge or creating friction. He uses the example of biometrics and seamless phone authentication to show how good design can improve both security and user satisfaction.To illustrate the connection between knowledge, attitude, and behavior, Dr. Nurse brings humor into the mix with a memorable analogy involving Kit Kats. Just as knowing something is delicious can shape our cravings and actions, understanding security in relatable terms can lead to more proactive behaviors.The episode wraps with a candid reflection on trust and novelty in the face of emerging AI systems—like self-driving cars. Dr. Nurse questions whether people truly trust new technologies or if they're simply seduced by convenience and innovation.This is a conversation about what it really takes to build a security-conscious society—one that understands people as much as it understands threats.Listen to the full episode to hear how mindset, usability, and cultural attitudes are reshaping the human side of cybersecurity.___________Guest: Dr. Jason R.C.

In this episode, I chat with Thomas Wilson, a veteran service designer, who challenges the conventional product-first approach in software and highlights the importance of broad, strategic thinking in design.Is the software industry focusing too much on products?Thomas Wilson thinks we're ignoring the value our core services bring.In this episode, I chat with Thomas Wilson, a seasoned design veteran with a deep understanding of human-centered UX. Thomas has some concerns with the way software is being designed and built right now, but it's not all bad. There are some things we can do to ensure we build the right thing.It all starts with the concept of the “Iceberg of Ignorance,” revealing how only a fraction of organizational problems are known to top executives. This is a problem when the people at the top start making decisions without much insight into the actual problems. This ultimately leads to misguided product-level decisions.Thomas emphasizes the pitfalls of a product-first approach, by highlighting its limitations in addressing user needs and the broader scope of services. He critiques the trend of minimizing the role of design leaders in favor of product-driven strategies.His fix? Embracing the essential role of service design in creating comprehensive services and experiences. He argues for the integration of CX and Service Design into broader business strategies. This requires a shift from simple usability to a holistic service design approach. This is where true innovation and user satisfaction lie.Our discussion also explored the potential of designers in product management roles, where their human-centered expertise will greatly influence product development. Thomas addresses the challenges faced by UX professionals in current industry practices. He advocates for a more empowered and strategic role for service designers.These insights provide a fresh perspective on the role of design in shaping not just products, but entire service ecosystems. Thomas's vision for a design-led approach to business strategy resonates with anyone passionate about creating meaningful user experiences.Topics:• 07:26 – Iceberg of Ignorance• 08:35 – We aren't sharing from the bottom• 10:53 – What's wrong with Product First?• 17:03 – What's wrong with calling everything a product?• 19:01 – Usability is surface design• 22:21 – Focusing on product stops working when services span products• 26:17 – The service exists whether you design it or not• 28:48 – Service Designers zoom out and zoom in as needed• 30:03 – Designers would make great product managers• 31:25 – What's wrong with players/coaches?• 39:24 – Things are broken, but how can we fix it?• 49:03 – CX vs UX• 58:56 – Understanding power and influence and stakeholder management

In dieser Episode geht es mal wieder technisch zur Sache – ganz nah dran an der Entwicklungsrealität. Im Mittelpunkt steht die ISO 9241, die zentrale Normenreihe für ergonomische Mensch-Maschine-Interaktion. Warum jede und jeder eine Meinung zu HMIs hat, aber wir als Profis mehr brauchen als subjektive Einschätzungen – das klären wir ebenso wie den Ursprung, Aufbau und die Anwendung der ISO 9241. Es geht um Dialogprinzipien wie Aufgabenangemessenheit, Fehlertoleranz und Steuerbarkeit – und darum, warum Wissenschaftlichkeit und Systematik die Basis guter HMI-Gestaltung sein müssen. Zum Abschluss ein Blick nach vorn: Wie geht die Norm mit KI, Augmented Reality und multimodaler Interaktion um? Und was bedeutet das für die Zukunft von Human-Machine Interfaces? Themen: - Herkunft und Bedeutung der ISO 9241 - Die sieben Dialogprinzipien als Gestaltungsbasis - Zukünftige Herausforderungen: AR, VR, KI und humane Interfaces Eine Folge für alle, die HMIs nicht nur schön, sondern sinnvoll gestalten wollen.

Listen now on Apple, Spotify, and YouTube.Javier is a User Experience Research Director with more than 20 years of experience in the field. He is passionate about building effective research organizations that scale and deliver critical user insights that help teams develop successful products that delight users. He has a proven track record of career development and coaching.In our conversation, we discuss:* The difference between strategic and tactical insights, not methods and why that distinction matters.* How to navigate the perceived “versus” between strategic and tactical research and instead embrace a more fluid, problem-driven approach.* Ways to embed strategic insights into product planning through tools like “strategic primers.”* How to deliver value in both tactical and strategic spaces—and earn your seat at the table in high-level planning.* How researchers can broaden their method toolkit to avoid defaulting to the same approaches and unlock new kinds of insights.Some takeaways:* Strategic and tactical are outcomes, not methods. Javier emphasizes that insights, not research methods, determine whether something is strategic or tactical. Usability tests can uncover strategic direction, and field studies can surface tactical improvements. Researchers need to move away from labeling methods and focus on the value the insights provide to the business.* You can't influence strategy if you're not in the room. Delivering a compelling presentation isn't enough. To make strategic insights actionable, researchers need to be present during planning and roadmap discussions. If you're not sure when strategic planning happens, that's a red flag and an invitation to start earning your seat by solving the right problems.* “Strategic primers” help researchers shape roadmaps. One of Javier's teams developed strategic primers: succinct, insight-packed documents delivered ahead of planning cycles. These primers synthesize research and industry knowledge into clear recommendations, helping PMs and leaders use research to guide direction-setting conversations.* There's no seniority in choosing tactics over strategy. Some researchers fall into the trap of avoiding tactical work as they become more senior. But successful researchers move between both as needed, supporting teams through every phase of development. Avoiding tactical work can disconnect you from the product and from impact.* Stop chasing “strategic work, and, instead, solve the right problems. Rather than seeking out work that feels more senior or impressive, Javier encourages researchers to focus on the problems that matter most to the business. When you deliver insights that move the team forward, strategic or tactical, you build trust, influence, and long-term value.Where to find Javier:* Website* LinkedInInterested in sponsoring the podcast?Interested in sponsoring or advertising on this podcast?

This week we are joined by Bonnie Faucett, former estate attorney and now the founder of the Legacy App, designed to help families and business owners seamlessly organize all of their important life details and documents.We break down why most estate plans are flawed, why having a will is NOT enough, and how improper planning can cost your family dearly in terms of money, relationships, and legacy. Bonnie also reveals the pitfalls of relying on outdated methods for asset organization and how her Legacy App Family Edition offers a simple, efficient, and secure way to get everything in order.Loral's Takeaways:The Importance of Estate and Legacy Planning (01:20)Introduction of the Legacy App (03:58)Myths and Mistakes in Legacy and Estate Planning (07:05)Mistakes in Estate Planning (09:40)Challenges for Business Owners and Blended Families (12:37)Special Needs Trusts (23:58)Security and Usability of the Legacy App (26:26)Meet Bonnie Faucett:As a busy wife, mom, and business owner, I struggled endlessly to keep all of my family's details organized and up-to-date. I kept things on paper, printouts, scans, handwritten notes, emails, email attachments, Dropbox files, you name it. But if someone had to quickly take my place and know exactly how to run my family and my business if I couldn't, it would be a mess. I tried to keep it all organized somehow but I sacrificed family time (and a little bit of my sanity) while mired in this chaos. I figured there had to be a better way so I started working on it, uncovering modern and easy ways to use technology to help me drastically reduce the time spent and the stress involved. Then I realized the problem was bigger than I thought and I started sharing it. With the Legacy App Family Edition, I'm sharing with families and business owners exactly how I figured out how to effortlessly organize my life's details, keep everything secure in one system, and ultimately save my family from collapse upon the disability or death of a loved one. I earned my bachelors degree from Colgate University and J.D. from The University of Texas at Austin. I'm a 3x business founder with two successful exits and I've helped 834 families with their estate planning and organizing their families' details.

In today's fast-paced technological landscape, the rapid evolution of hardware often leaves older devices obsolete, particularly when it comes to operating systems. The increasing requirements for modern operating systems, such as Windows 11, pose significant challenges for charities and individuals looking to repurpose older laptops. However, one viable solution that not only extends the life of these devices but also promotes sustainability is the installation of Linux operating systems.The Challenge of ObsolescenceAs technology advances, operating systems and software applications demand more from hardware. Windows 11, for instance, requires at least an 8th generation Intel CPU, along with other specifications that many older laptops do not meet. This creates a dilemma for organizations like charities that receive donated laptops. While these devices may be functional, their inability to run the latest operating systems often leads to their disposal or relegation to e-waste recycling - a process that is not only environmentally taxing but also wasteful.The Benefits of LinuxLinux emerges as a powerful alternative for repurposing old laptops. Unlike Windows, Linux distributions (or "distros") are designed to be lightweight and flexible, making them suitable for older hardware. Here are several compelling reasons to consider Linux for repurposing old laptops:Compatibility with Older HardwareMany Linux distributions are specifically tailored to run on older machines. Distros like Ubuntu MATE, Lubuntu, and Xubuntu are known for their efficiency and can breathe new life into laptops that struggle with more demanding operating systems.Cost-EffectiveLinux is open-source and free to use, which means that charities and individuals can install it without incurring licensing fees. This is particularly beneficial for organizations that operate on tight budgets and seek to maximize the resources they have.Security and UpdatesWhile Windows 10 is approaching its end of life and will no longer receive security updates unless users pay for extended support, many Linux distributions offer regular updates and support from their communities. This ensures that users can maintain a secure computing environment without the looming threat of outdated software.Diverse Software EcosystemLinux provides access to a vast array of software applications for various needs, from productivity tools to multimedia editing. Users can find alternatives to popular software that runs on Windows, allowing them to perform everyday tasks without the need for expensive licenses.Community SupportThe Linux community is known for its robust support networks. Users can easily find help through forums, online documentation, and user groups, making it easier for those unfamiliar with Linux to transition smoothly.Environmental ImpactBy choosing to install Linux on older laptops, we are not only extending the life of these devices but also contributing to a more sustainable future. E-waste is a growing concern, with millions of tons generated each year. Repurposing laptops with Linux helps reduce this waste by keeping devices in use longer and minimizing the demand for new hardware. In an era where environmental sustainability is paramount, this practice aligns with broader efforts to reduce our carbon footprint and promote responsible consumption.ConclusionRepurposing old laptops with Linux is a practical and sustainable approach to technology that benefits both individuals and the environment. As discussed in the Piltch Point podcast, the challenges posed by modern operating systems can be mitigated through the adoption of Linux, which offers compatibility, cost savings, security, and community support. By embracing this alternative, we can ensure that older laptops continue to serve their purpose, providing valuable resources to those in need while reducing electronic waste. In doing so, we take a meaningful step towards a more sustainable and responsible technological future.

Trinity researchers have developed a new gamified mobile health (mHealth) app designed to help people with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) manage fatigue, one of the most common and debilitating symptoms of the disease. The research - led by Dr Guido Giunti, Adjunct Professor, School of Medicine, Trinity College Dublin and Associate Professor of Digital Health at the University of Oulu, Finland, and researchers from the University of Oulu and Oulu University Hospital - evaluated the feasibility, usability, and impact of the app, named, More Stamina over a 60-day period. The study, which highlights the potential of the app, is published in the journal Multiple Sclerosis and Related Disorders today. "Fatigue is an invisible but life-altering symptom of MS," said Dr. Guido Giunti, Adjunct Professor, School of Medicine, Trinity College Dublin and leader of the More Stamina project. "Managing it requires more than just medication. More Stamina gives people the tools to understand their energy levels, take control of their day, and communicate their needs more effectively." The study followed 20 participants from Oulu University Hospital in Finland, who used the app daily for two months. Key Findings Users became more aware of their fatigue patterns, enabling them to plan their days more effectively. Higher engagement correlated with increased self-awareness, particularly among those with more severe fatigue. The app helped facilitate discussions with family members and healthcare providers, improving mutual understanding of fatigue's impact. Usability improved over time, though some users found data entry cognitively demanding, indicating areas for refinement. An Evidence-Driven Digital Health Solution More Stamina helps users track their daily activities and energy expenditure using "Stamina Credits", a gamified approach that visualizes energy use and helps users make informed decisions about their daily plans. Unlike many digital health solutions, More Stamina stands out for its research-driven approach at every stage, from identifying patient needs to design, prototyping, development, and testing. Each phase has been accompanied by peer-reviewed research, creating a transparent scientific trail for a mobile health solution. Bringing Digital Health into MS Care Fatigue affects up to 80% of MS patients and has a profound impact on their quality of life. Managing fatigue is challenging, as it involves physical, cognitive, and emotional factors, often leaving patients feeling exhausted, misunderstood, and unsupported. While digital health solutions have been increasingly proposed to help manage chronic conditions like MS, few have been rigorously evaluated to ensure their effectiveness and real-world impact. Neurologists at Oulu University Hospital emphasize the potential of such solutions in complementing traditional MS care. While the study confirmed that More Stamina is a feasible and acceptable tool, researchers emphasize that larger and longer-term studies are needed to evaluate its full clinical impact. The team is now exploring ways to integrate More Stamina into broader MS care strategies. Professor Minna Isomursu, University of Oulu, said: "Digital health solutions are only as good as their foundation. We worked with real patients and healthcare professionals from the start to build something truly useful. That is key to creating tools that people actually find useful in their daily lives." Empowering Patients and Strengthening Family Dialogue One of the unexpected yet powerful outcomes of the study was the role More Stamina played in facilitating conversations between MS patients and their families. Many participants reported that sharing their fatigue patterns with loved ones helped them feel understood and supported. More Stamina's development was not just about technology, it was about people. Active participation from patient representatives was key to ensuring that the app addressed real-life challenges.

I bet that subject line made you think this email was going to be about the importance of focusing on usability. But actually, we shouldn't be.Too many UX designers I meet are obsessed with making things as seamless and streamlined as possible. That's great—up to a point. But usability isn't our entire job. In fact, focusing too much on usability can make an experience feel sterile, even soulless.Let's take a slot machine as an example. If you handed a slot machine over to the average UX designer, they'd probably strip it down to its most minimal form: no flashing lights, no spinning reels—just a plain screen that instantly tells you if you won or lost. Maybe it wouldn't even require you to press a button! It could just detect when you put in money and deliver the result instantly.And yet, we all know that's not how slot machines work. Because they're not just about usability. They're about anticipation, excitement, and emotional engagement. The flashing lights, the spinning reels, the suspense—they all play a crucial role in making the experience what it is.Learning from Customer Experience ProfessionalsThis is where UX designers can learn a lot from customer experience (CX) professionals, especially those who design offline experiences. They understand that the way people feel about an experience matters just as much—if not more—than how easy it is to use.In fact, this is why I often think of myself as a Customer Experience professional rather than a UX designer. I've found that embracing the broader CX perspective allows me to consider the entire customer journey, including offline touchpoints and the entirety of the experience, rather than fixating solely on digital usability.CX professionals measure things like brand perception and emotional engagement. They think about how an experience builds loyalty. And just like them, we need to work alongside marketers, sales teams, and customer support to align our designs with broader business goals—not just usability scores.Beyond Usability MetricsIf we only measure usability, we miss the bigger picture. Instead of just tracking usability testing results, we should be looking at Net Promoter Scores (NPS), customer service feedback, and online sentiment analysis. AI has made it easier than ever to analyze reviews, support tickets, and social media comments to see not just what users find easy, but how they actually feel about their interactions with a product.A Restaurant Is More Than Just FoodThink about a restaurant. From a usability perspective, as long as you get seated quickly, can order easily, and receive food that meets your nutritional needs, the job is done. But we all know that's not what makes a restaurant great.The ambiance, the presentation, the service, the flavors—these are the things that turn a meal into an experience worth remembering. UX is no different. If we focus solely on making things usable, we risk creating experiences that are efficient but forgettable.So, let's stop designing slot machines that just say “win” or “lose” and start crafting experiences that truly engage people. Because usability alone isn't enough—it's how we make people feel that ultimately matters.

AI has made incredible strides, but is it truly user-friendly? In this episode, UX legend Jakob Nielsen joins VUX World to discuss why AI usability still lags behind and what needs to change. As the founder of UX Tigers and a pioneer in usability with 41 years of experience, Nielsen has shaped the field with groundbreaking contributions, including heuristic evaluation, Jakob's Law, and the 10 usability heuristics. He has authored eight best-selling books, holds 79 patents, and was named “the king of usability” by Internet Magazine and “the guru of Web page usability" by The New York Times.We explore the challenges AI users face, from the articulation barrier to unclear system feedback, and why many AI products still prioritise engineering over usability. Nielsen also unpacks the impact of AI stigma, discussing how better design can build trust and encourage wider adoption. Drawing on his vast expertise, he explains why usability heuristics are more relevant than ever in the AI era.Finally, we discuss the future of AI usability and what it takes to create AI-powered tools that people actually want to use. From improving AI-human collaboration to eliminating confusing interfaces, this conversation is packed with insights for anyone working in AI, UX, or product design.Check out Jakobs LinkedIn Read ‘What is agentic AI?

In this episode of the Cherryleaf Podcast, we explore the challenges of receiving and responding to criticism as a technical writer. Documentation plays a crucial role in user experience, and receiving feedback—whether constructive or harsh—can be an opportunity for growth. We discuss practical strategies for handling feedback, evaluating its validity, and implementing improvements to enhance documentation quality. Key Topics Covered: ✅ Why receiving feedback (even negative) is better than receiving none ✅ How to separate personal feelings from professional criticism ✅ The importance of acknowledging user feedback and addressing concerns ✅ Types of criticism: Constructive vs. Unconstructive ✅ Methods for evaluating the validity of feedback ✅ Tools and techniques to measure documentation quality (e.g., IBM Quality Matrix, analytics, usability testing) ✅ Addressing common documentation challenges: clarity, findability, audience mismatch, and linking ✅ Steps for implementing improvements and tracking their impact ✅ Preventative measures for reducing future criticism Key Takeaways: Criticism is not personal – It's about improving the documentation, not attacking the writer. Acknowledging feedback is crucial to building trust and ensuring continuous improvement. Evaluating feedback critically helps differentiate between valid concerns and personal preferences. Quality measurement techniques (analytics, support ticket trends, usability testing) can validate feedback. Structured improvements through linking, clearer writing, audience targeting, and prioritization can make a big impact. Continuous monitoring is necessary to ensure long-term effectiveness.

With phishing and password breaches on the rise, passkeys could offer a more secure, user-friendly solution that could reshape how we protect our online identities. Today's guest is Christiaan Brand. Christiaan is the co-founder of Entersekt, a financial services security firm and a key player at Google in their security and identity teams.  A respected voice in cybersecurity, Christian co-chairs the FIDO2 technical working group focusing on standardizing robust online security protocols in advancing the use of passkeys. He has been at the forefront of the shift toward more secure, password-free systems. We'll hear his insights on the challenges and opportunities of implementing passkeys to create safer online environments for users and organizations. Show Notes: [00:52] - Christiaan is part of the security team for Google accounts. He's been with Google for 9 years. Prior to that he had a startup. [01:30] - He joined the FIDO Alliance around the same time Google joined in 2013. When he joined Google, he was able to continue with the same type of work. [02:35] - Each of the big tech companies represents a portion of the market when it comes to how we interact with the web and apps. [04:06] - He became interested in security when he started thinking about what could go wrong with new technology solutions. He wanted users to be able to access their financial information in a safe and secure way. [05:06] - 2FA began gaining traction with Google in 2011. It coincided with the launch of Google Authenticator. 2FA was also used by a gaming company. [07:54] - Usability is important, that's why having an app that displays the codes was one of the first forays into making the technology more accessible. [08:34] - Passkeys allow us to move beyond passwords, leaving the extra hassle of traditional multi-factor authentication behind. [11:05] - Key fobs were one of the earlier ways to try and bring usability to security. Now the technology is being moved to smartphones. [12:33] - Passkeys are a replacement for a password manager. [13:35] - Passkeys are extremely long and asymmetric in nature. You and the site you're going to both have the passkey. [14:27] - The service will have the public part of the passkey, and you'll have the private part. Even if the public part leaks out, your passkey will still be secure. Passkeys can never be revealed to phishing sites. [15:47] - FIDO brings the second authentication step in. The service also has to identify themselves. [20:04] - Password managers try to balance security and convenience. Logging in or accessing a passkey is a unique challenge for providers. [22:20] - Phone numbers are a way to get users back into their accounts. [25:19] - Single device users have extra challenges. [26:08] - There are pros and cons to external sources of identity. [29:44] - The FIDO website has many certified solutions. [33:21] - To get passkeys into daily users' lives, we need to start using them on daily applications where we log in frequently. [35:49] - Hopefully this passkey solution will stand the test of time. [37:34] - Attacks are beginning to shift to session hijacking. [38:24] - DBSC or device-based session credentials is a new standard parallel to FIDO. Thanks for joining us on Easy Prey.

The latest Take Control Books release comes from Kirk McElhearn. Take Control of Apple Media Apps covers Apple Music and Podcasts as well as The Apple TV and Books apps. Kirk talks about the evolution of this book and how an understanding of their similarities and the near-complete feature parity can help you get more out of them. Usability, rather than continuous feature introduction, has resulted in mature (in a good way) apps that let you use their content intuitively. The Apple TV app gets special attention in the discussion. (Part 1)  MacVoices is supported by the 2024 MacVoices Holiday Gift Guide. Great gift ideas to give and get from your MacVoices friends.

Practices around identity and managing credentials have improved greatly since the days of infosec mandating 90-day password rotations. But those improvements didn't arise from a narrow security view. Hannah Sutor talks about the importance of balancing security with usability, the importance of engaging with users when determining defaults, and setting an example for transparency in security disclosures.
