Hi John
It does contain contain information about what they should do, but it has them after the examples of what not to do
such as
"Having tokens, signing in via email account or face book, or biometrics are all alternatives to the above"
All the best

Hi Lisa,
My first impression about this approach is that it does not provide developers any recommendations about what they *should* do, which is the optimal approach.

Subject: technique to include security
Hi
I was thinking of the following technique as a way to include security and other considerations
"Do not require cognitive abilities when it is avoidable"
In security this may include:
Requiring that the user has a good working memory or short term memory required to copy a code
Requiring that the user can remember complex passwords
Requiring that the user can remeber spelling of terms used in security questions such as how to spell a strange pets name
Requiring that the user can remember visual patterns
Having tokans, signing in via email account or face book, or biometrics are all alternatives to the above
In voice systems this may include,
Requiring the user to understand categories,
Requiring the user to remember numbers
can all be used as a barrier to getting human help
is is aviodable by having 0 as a reserved digit to access a human
In the Web of things this may include:
remembering what symbols mean
remembering sequences to run certain tasks
This is aviodable by having simple text with symbols and
clear discovrability of how o complete each task
and recovrability from errors
All the best
