  abstract  = {We introduce the concept of Public Security User Interfaces as an innovative approach to enhancing cybersecurity awareness and promoting security behavior change among users in public spaces. We envision these interfaces as dynamic platforms that leverage interactive elements and contextual cues to deliver timely security information and guidance to users. We identify four key objectives: raising awareness, triggering actions, providing control, and sparking conversation. Drawing upon Sasse et al.’s Security Learning Curve, we outline the stages for supporting users in adopting new security-related routines into habits, encompassing knowledge, concordance, self-efficacy, implementation, embedding, and secure behavior. Insights from research on public displays and spontaneous interactions inform the design of public security user interfaces tailored to different environments and user groups. Furthermore, we propose research questions pertaining to stakeholders, content, user interface design, and effects on users and discuss challenges as well as limitations. Introducing public security user interfaces to bridge the gap between cybersecurity experts and lay users sets the stage for future research and development in this emerging field.},
