This book is a compilation of revised and selected papers from the 11th International Workshop on Socio-Technical Aspects in Security and Trust (STAST 2021), which was held as a virtual event in October 2021 in conjunction with ESORICS, the European Symposium on Research in Computer Security. The conference featured a total of 10 full papers, which were subjected to rigorous review and selection from a pool of 25 submissions. The papers were organized into three topical sections: web and apps, context and modelling, and from the present to the future.

The first section, web and apps, covered a range of topics related to web and mobile applications, including security, privacy, and usability. Authors explored various techniques and technologies for enhancing the security and privacy of these applications, such as encryption, authentication, and access control. They also discussed the challenges and risks associated with developing and deploying web and mobile applications, such as malware, phishing, and social engineering attacks.

The second section, context and modelling, focused on understanding the social and technical contexts in which security and trust issues arise. Authors presented case studies and research on various aspects of context, such as user behaviour, social networks, and organizational culture. They explored how these contexts influence the design, implementation, and evaluation of security and trust solutions.

The third section, from the present to the future, examined the emerging trends and challenges in the field of security and trust. Authors discussed the potential impact of emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence, blockchain, and the Internet of Things, on security and trust. They also explored the role of policy, regulation, and education in shaping the future of security and trust.

Overall, this book provides a valuable resource for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers interested in the socio-technical aspects of security and trust. The papers presented offer insights into the latest research and developments in the field, and they provide practical recommendations for addressing the challenges and opportunities that arise in this rapidly evolving area.
