Abstract: The purpose of this study has been to do a user-centered security development of a prototype graphical interface for a management information system dealing with information security. The interface was perceived as successful by the test subjects and the sponsoring organization, Siguru.

To facilitate the need of management the study presents three heuristics for the design of management information security system interfaces.
