“…The behavior or reaction of the users towards an interface is one of the key things which are studied in Human Computer Interactions (HCI). For example, when the user experiences any form of discomfort while using the interface, it tells a lot on the usability of that particular system [5]. Scenarios for both security and usability are widely used by experts for various purposes.…”

Abstract-Systems carry sensitive data where users are involved. There is need for security concern for the modern software applications. We can term them as 'untrusted clients'. Internet usage has rapidly grown over the years and, more users are opening their information system to their clientele, it is essential to understand users' data that need protecting and to control system access as well and the rights of users of the system. Because of today's increasingly nomadic lifestyle, where they allow users to connect to information systems from anywhere with all the devices in the market, the users need to carry part of the information system out of the secure infrastructure. Insecurity in user interfaces is caused by user ignoring functionalities in the system where some are not only a threat but can harm the system e.g. leaving network services active even though the user does not need them, or when a user is having little or no information of the available security measures. This research paper aims critically address through a review of existing literature, the importance of balance or trade-off between usability and the security of the system. Systematic review method involved a physical exploration of some conference proceedings and journals to conduct the literature review. Research questions relating to usability and security were asked and the criteria for usability and security evaluations were identified. This systematic literature review is valuable in closing the gap between usability and security in software development process, where usability and security engineering needs to be considered for a better quality end-user software.

“…Hence, as a solution to this problem, we propose an interface causing discomfort for security in our different survey. [34] This research is to implement an interface with which one would feel discomfort so that she/he would be aware of security risks.…”

In this research, we investigate users' subjective sense of security, which we call Anshin in Japanese. The research goal is to create a guideline of Anshin in information security for users. In this paper, we report how the user security knowledge level could influence the factors of Anshin for online shopping users. Traditional studies on security have been based on the assumption that users would feel the sense of security when provided with objectively secure systems. We conducted a Web survey with 920 subjects with our questionnaire. We divided the subjects into two groups which have low and high security knowledge level and analyzed each group. Then, we divided each group into two sub-groups and compare the result. As a result of the analysis, we extracted the similar factors between them. However, we found a difference between the two sub-groups in high security knowledge level groups. As a result, we conclude that there are different Anshin factors in accordance with the user security knowledge level. Moreover, we showed that Anshin factors might also affect other attributes when user security knowledge level is high.

“…If s/he does not consider alternatives, they are in a situation of confidence. We explored an interesting concept in which an interface causing discomfort could let a user achieve Anshin, because the user would be aware of the danger and risks involved (Oikawa, 2008;Fujihara et al, 2008). In this paper, we report on the initial model of the discomfort felt by a user when using a computer.…”
