Raja, Fahimeh, Hawkey, Kirstie, Hsu, Steven, Wang, Kai-Le and Beznosov, Konstantin (2011): Promoting a physical security mental model for personal firewall warnings. In: Proceedings of ACM CHI 2011 Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems 2011. pp. 1585-1590.

“We used an iterative process to design personal firewall warnings in which the functionality of a firewall is visualized based on a physical security mental model. We performed a study to determine the degree to which our proposed warnings are understandable for our participants, and the degree to which they convey the risks and encourage safe behavior as compared to warnings based on those from a popular personal firewall. Initial results show that our warnings facilitate the comprehension of warning information, better communicate risk, and increase the likelihood of safe behavior. Moreover, they provided participants with a better understanding of both the functionality of a personal firewall and the consequences of their actions.”

Raja, Fahimeh, Hawkey, Kirstie, Hsu, Steven, Wang, Kai-Le Clement and Beznosov, Konstantin (2011): A brick wall, a locked door, and a bandit: a physical security metaphor for firewall warnings. In: Proceedings of the 2011 Symposium on Usable Privacy and Security 2011. p. 1.

“We used an iterative process to design firewall warnings in which the functionality of a personal firewall is visualized based on a physical security metaphor. We performed a study to determine the degree to which our proposed warnings are understandable for users, and the degree to which they convey the risks and encourage safe behavior as compared to text warnings based on those from a popular personal firewall. The evaluation results show that our warnings facilitate the comprehension of warning information, better communicate the risk, and increase the likelihood of safe behavior. Moreover, they provide participants with a better understanding of both the functionality of a personal firewall and the consequences of their actions.”
