  abstract  = {While we put great effort in protecting digital devices and data,there is a lack of research on usable techniques to secure personalitems that we carry in public space. To better understand situationswhere ubiquitous technologies could help secure personal items,we conducted an online survey (N=101) in which we collected real-world stories from users reporting on personal items, either at riskof, or actually being lost, damaged or stolen. We found that themajority of cases occurred in (semi-)public spaces during afternoonand evening times, when users left their items. From these results,we derived a model of incidents involving personal items in publicspace as well as a set of properties to describe situations wherepersonal items may be at risk. We discuss reoccurring properties ofthe scenarios, potential multimedia-based protection mechanismsfor securing personal items in public space as well as future researchsuggestions},
