Abstract
To design a user interface of a secure interactive application, a method is provided to designers with guidance in designing an adequate security information feedback using a library of user-interface design patterns integrating security and usability. The resulting feedback is then evaluated against a set of design/evaluation criteria called human–computer interaction for security (HCI-S). In this way, notifications combining visual and auditive channels required to achieve an effective feedback in case of a security issue are explicitly incorporated in the development life cycle.
