by Nishant Shah published Mar 20, 2011 last modified Apr 04, 2011 07:15 AM — filed under: ,
Trust is hard to build, but easy to lose. What factors affect individuals' trust in new technologies? How can governments create citizen trust in biometric security tools? Can biometrics be designed to be privacy-friendly? And how did these questions lead to the cancellation of the UK's national identity scheme, after a decade of development costing tens of millions of pounds?

He also works in the more technical fields of communications security and healthcare informatics.
