A perception oriented approach for usable and secure interface development

Abstract

Developers generally try to make their systems secure by adding Information Security measures and components to User Interfaces. While applying these measures, usability of interfaces may decrease seriously. Developing secure and usable user interfaces became a necessity due to the fact that security and usability are both indispensable for users. To develop secure and usable interfaces, first, users' perception of information security is analyzed. In this study, An Enhanced Users' Perception of Information Security Model (EUPoIM) and Perception Oriented Usable & Secure Interface Development Model (POSUIDM) are proposed to empower developers in developing both secure and usable user interfaces. © 2014 Springer International Publishing Switzerland.
