[Om-announce] Deadline extended - 4th IEEE Workshop on Security and Privacy in the Cloud (SPC 2018)
CALL FOR PAPERS *** Submission deadline extended to March 16, 2018 (11:59 p.m. American Samoa time) *** ** 4th IEEE Workshop on Security and Privacy in the Cloud (SPC 2018) Beijing, China - May 30-June 1, 2018 http://spc2018.di.unimi.it/ ** Cloud computing is today the reference paradigm for large-scale data storage and processing due to the convenient and efficient network access to configurable resources that can be easily adjusted according to the users’ needs. Although the benefits of cloud computing are tremendous, security and privacy concerns have still a detrimental impact on the adoption and acceptability of cloud services. In fact, users as well as companies that rely on cloud storage and computation services lose the direct control over the systems managing their data and applications, thus putting the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the data at risk. The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners who are interested in discussing the security, privacy, and data protection issues emerging in cloud scenarios, and possible solutions to them. SPC 2018 is the fourth workshop in this series and will be held in Beijing, China, on May 30-June 1, in conjunction with the IEEE Conference on Communications and Network Security (IEEE CNS 2018). The workshop seeks submissions from academia, industry, and government presenting novel research, as well as experimental studies, on all theoretical and practical aspects of security, privacy, and data protection in cloud scenarios. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Anonymity in cloud scenarios - Applied cryptography in cloud scenarios - Cloud-based biometric systems - Data and application security - Data and system integrity - Data availability in outsourcing scenarios - Data protection - Efficient access to outsourced data - Key management in cloud scenarios - Privacy - Privacy of accesses - Secure computation over encrypted data - Security and trust metrics - Security and privacy in crowdsourcing - Security and privacy in multi-clouds and federated clouds - Security and privacy in data outsourcing - Security and privacy in the Internet of Things - Security and privacy of big data - Security and privacy of distributed computations - Security and privacy of fog computing - Security and privacy policies - Selective information sharing - Threats, vulnerabilities, and risk management PAPER SUBMISSIONS Submitted papers must not substantially overlap papers that have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a conference with proceedings. Submissions should be at most 9 pages in the IEEE 8,5"x11" two-column format. Submissions should not be anonymized. The workshop will also consider short submissions of up to 4 pages for results that are preliminary or that simply require few pages. Papers should be submitted for review through EDAS (http://edas.info/N24475). Only PDF files will be accepted. Submissions not meeting these guidelines risk rejection without consideration of their merits. Papers must be received by the extended deadline of March 16, 2018 (11:59 p.m. American Samoa time). Authors of accepted papers must guarantee that their papers will be presented at the workshop. Accepted and presented papers will be included in the IEEE CNS 2018 conference proceedings and also in IEEE Xplore as well as other Abstracting and Indexing (A) databases.

Under this perspective, the new industrial cyber-physical “things” can be accessible and available from remote locations, the information of which can be processed and stored in distributed locations, favouring the cooperation, the performance in field, and the achievement of operational tasks working at optimal times. However, the incorporation of the IIoT in the new scenarios of the fourth industrial revolution, also known as Industry 4.0, entails having to consider the new security and privacy issues that can threaten the wellbeing of the new IIoT ecosystem and its coexistence with the existing industrial technologies, with a high risk of impact on the end-users. Therefore, this workshop will create a collaboration platform for experts from academia, governments and industry to address the new IIoT security and privacy challenges. Papers related to security and privacy of embedded systems working in industrial and control environments, such as SCADA, smart grid, smart cities, manufacturing systems, water systems, and in critical infrastructures in general, are all welcome at WIIoTS 2018. The technical topics of interest for this workshop include, but are not limited to: • Interoperable IIoT ecosystem-level security and privacy challenges • IIoT governance, regulation and standards • Cross-layer threat modelling in IIoT and risk assessment • Lightweight cryptography and key management • Lightweight IIoT security protocols and AAA services for IIoT • Collaborative and trustworthy IIoT frameworks and architectures • Privacy-preserving models and anonymization techniques for IIoT • Secure IIoT data storage and Big Data • Location privacy and trust management • Intrusion detection, anomaly diagnosis and situational awareness for IIoT • Response and resilience to IIoT cyber-attacks • Incident management and IIoT forensics • Case studies and practical validations: SCADA, energy, water, smart factory, etc. Important Dates: • Extended Submission due: March 27, 2018 (GMT) • Notification: April 25, 2018 • Camera-ready due: May 10, 2018 Program Chair: == • Cristina Alcaraz (University of Malaga, Spain) General Co-Chairs: == • Javier Lopez (University of Malaga, Spain) • Yan Zhang (University of Oslo, Norway) Technical Program Committee: • Alvaro Cardenas (University of Dallas, USA) • Christos Xenakis (University of Piraeus) • Dimitris Gritzalis (Athens University of Economics and Business) • Federica Pascucci (University of Roma Tre, Italy) • Kim-Kwang Raymond Choo (University of Texas, USA) • Luca Faramondi (University Campus Bio-Medico) • Mihalis Psarakis (University of Piraeus, Greece) • Nils Ole Tippenhauer (Information Systems Technology and Design (ISTD), Singapore) • Panayiotis kotzanikolaou (University of Piraeus, Greece) • Rakesh Bobba (Oregon State University, USA) • Rodrigo Roman (University of Malaga, Spain) • Sherali Zeadally (University of Kentucky, USA) • Urko Zurutuza Ortega (University of Mondragon, Spain) • Xinyi Huang (Fujian Normal University, China) Publicity Chair: • Juan E.
