This research addresses open questions on the interaction of aging, financial security in an information society, and elder perceptions of the risks of digital information technologies. The end technological goal is to improve the design of security and privacy technologies for older Americans. Note that security on the Internet is designed by younger, risk-seeking technologists who are primarily male. Those over 65 who require a secure Internet are by definition older, also risk-averse, rarely technologists, and more often than not female. It is not surprising that there is a mismatch between the mental models of secure system designers and this growing group of users. In terms of method, this research will include an examination of the value of multimedia combined with the scale enabled by traditional surveys. Specifically, the research will evaluate the inclusion of multimedia interactive technologies in terms of enabling inclusion of the nuance previously possible only in smaller scale qualitative work.The implications of computer security being systematically ill-suited for elders are profound, and improving this mismatch is the broader implication of this work. Never has so much wealth been accessible with such ease by so many predators. Organized crime reaches out from remote jurisdictions, where American law enforcement cannot reach back. The combination of the concentration of wealth among Americans over age 65, the global unsecured network, availability of personally identifiable information used for authentication, increasingly organized online crime, and the disproportionate lack of technical expertise among elders can create a perfect digital storm. Yet this problem is profoundly under-studied. Without computer security technology built to serve elders, these risks cannot be effectively, systematically addressed.

这项研究解决了关于老龄化，信息社会中的金融安全以及老年人对数字信息技术风险的看法的相互作用的开放问题。最终的技术目标是为美国老年人改进安全和隐私技术的设计。请注意，互联网上的安全是由年轻的、追求风险的技术人员设计的，他们主要是男性。65岁以上的人需要安全的互联网，从定义上讲，他们年龄较大，也厌恶风险，很少是技术专家，而且往往是女性。安全系统设计人员的心智模型与这一不断增长的用户群体之间存在不匹配，这并不奇怪。在方法方面，这项研究将包括审查多媒体与传统调查所能实现的规模相结合的价值。具体而言，研究将评估纳入多媒体互动技术方面，使列入以前可能只有在较小规模的定性work.The影响的细微差别计算机安全系统不适合老年人是深刻的，改善这种不匹配是这项工作的更广泛的含义。从来没有这么多的财富被这么多的掠夺者如此容易地获得。有组织犯罪从遥远的司法管辖区延伸，美国执法部门无法返回。财富集中在65岁以上的美国人身上，全球不安全的网络，用于身份验证的个人身份信息的可用性，越来越有组织的在线犯罪以及老年人不成比例地缺乏技术专业知识，这些因素的结合可以创造一场完美的数字风暴。然而，这一问题还没有得到深入的研究。 如果没有专门为老年人服务的计算机安全技术，这些风险就无法得到有效、系统的解决。
