It's not just about accuracy: An investigation of the human factors in users' reliance on anti-phishing tools

作者:

Highlights:

• Users will not fully rely on anti-phishing tools, even when they are highly accurate.

• Users' under-reliance on highly accurate anti-phishing tools can be explained by their distrust.

• Distrust arises because of a lack of transparency on how anti-phishing tools work.

• Less is more: fewer, more accurate, predictions help reduce distrust and increase reliance.
