CALL FOR PAPERS
IEEE 2014 Fourth International Workshop on
Security and Privacy Engineering (SPE2014)
One day between June 27 and July 2, 2014,
at Hilton Anchorage, Alaska, USA
Co-located with IEEE SERVICES 2014
(http://www.servicescongress.org/2014/)

Description
==========
Built upon the success of spectrum of conferences within the IEEE
World Congress on Services, the Security and Privacy Engineering (SPE
2014) workshop is a unique place to exchange ideas of engineering
secure systems in the context of service computing, cloud computing,
and big data analytics. The emphasis on engineering in security and
privacy of services differentiates the workshop from other traditional
prestigious security and privacy workshops, symposiums, and
conferences. The practicality and value realization are examined by
practitioners from leading industries as well as scientists from
academia.
In line with the engineering spirit, we solicit original papers on
building secure service systems that can be applied to government
procurement, digital medical records, cloud environments, social
networking for business purposes, multimedia application, mobile
commerce, education, and the like. Potential contributions could
cover, but are not limited to, methodologies, protocols, tools, or
verification and validation techniques. We also welcome review papers
that analyze critically the status of current Security and Privacy
(S&P) in a specific area. Papers from practitioners who encounter
security and privacy problems and seek understanding are also welcome.
Topics of interests of SPE 2014 include, but are not limited to:
- S&P Engineering of Service-Based Applications
- Security Engineering of Service Compositions
- Practical Approaches to Security Engineering of Services
- Privacy-Aware Service Engineering
- Industrial and Real Use Cases in S&P Engineering of (Cloud) Services
- S&P Engineering of Cloud Services
- Auditing and Assessment
- Assurance and Certification
- Security Management and Governance
- Privacy Enforcement in Clouds and Services
- Cybersecurity Issues of Clouds and Services
- Validation and Verification of S&P in Clouds and Services
- Applied Cryptography for S&P in Clouds and Services
- S&P Testing in Clouds and Services
- Security and Privacy Modeling
- Socio-Economics and Compliance
- Education and Awareness
- Big Data S&P Engineering

Call For Papers
Annual Privacy Forum 2016 (http://privacyforum.eu/) bringing research &
policy together,7-8 September, Frankfurt am Main
Nowadays electronic communication networks and digital services are an
essential part of an increasing number of everyday commodities. In the
era of automated profiling and electronic surveillance, citizens face a
serious threat against their right to privacy and informational
self-determination, especially when using the internet and mobile
services. The lack of transparency regarding the functionality and
interconnection of such services increases the risk of uncontrollable
processing of personal data. In this regard, the upcoming Data
Protection Regulation will be a useful instrument to protect the privacy
of individuals. However, for its successful implementation, this new
framework needs to be enforced by proper technologies and encompassed
with sustainable business models along with mechanisms to promote
privacy awareness and help users to understand the value of their data.
ENISA is organizing the 2016 edition of the annual privacy forum, in the
light of the upcoming data protection regulation and the European
digital agenda. We invite papers covering original work on the
technological, economic, legal and societal aspects of the challenges
that will come up with the implementation of the new framework. We
particularly invite multidisciplinary papers that make it explicit how
the presented work can contribute to bridging the gap between research
and policy. Moreover, in order to also encourage contributions from
policy makers, representatives of competent authorities (such as Data
Protection Authorities), industry experts, NGOs and civil society
associations, we invite opinion papers from all stakeholders on the
above mentioned topics. Opinion papers will reflect the opinion/position
of the author(s) on the selected privacy-related topic.
Both research and opinion papers should deal with at least one of the
following aspects:
- Implementation aspects of 'by design' and 'by default' paradigms
- Implementation and adoption of PETs in today's digital services
- Modelling of data protection and privacy requirements, such as:
machine readable representations and automatic evaluation of policies
- Enabling transparency: technological and organizational challenges.
- Technical solutions for the enforcement and the implications of the
subject's right, e.g. right to erasure, access and correction.
- Aspects of privacy impact and risk assessment
- Technical solutions for data portability
- Sustainable business models for privacy friendly online services
- Information and consent in online environments: practical solutions
and implementations
- Privacy awareness, reliability and usability of PETs
- Trust services for the protection of personal data - privacy aware
trust services (i.e. electronic certificates, signatures, etc.)
- Security measures for the protection of personal data
- Economics of privacy and personal data
Review and Publication
All submissions will be thoroughly reviewed by our PC members. We aim at
minimal 3 average 4 reviews per Paper. Furthermore, papers will be
published in the proceedings of the conference with a publishing house
soon to be selected and announced.
