COMPUTING SCIENCE Colour, usability and security: a case study
نویسندگان
چکیده
The use of colour in user interfaces is extensive. It is typically a usability issue, and has rarely caused any security concerns. In this article, we show that the use of colours in the design of CAPTCHA, a standard security technology that has found widespread applications in commercial websites, can have interesting but critical implications on both security and usability. © 2010 University of Newcastle upon Tyne.
