*Please accept our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP.* ============================ The 4th International Workshop on Security and Privacy in Cloud Computing, held in conjunction with the First IEEE Conference on Communications and Network Security (IEEE CNS 2013)
October 14th, 2013 Wachington, D.C., USA http://www.cs.cityu.edu.hk/~congwang/spcc13/ ============================ Cloud computing represents today’s most exciting computing paradigm shift in information technology. By moving data and computing services to the large data centers, cloud promises to provide unprecedented benefits like ubiquitous network access, rapid resource elasticity, minimal management overhead, etc. However, its unique attributes also raise many security and privacy challenges in areas such as data security, privacy, recovery, access control, trusted computing, as well as legal issues like regulatory compliance and auditing, where the management of the data and services are not fully trustworthy. Due to the fundamental paradigm shift in cloud, many security concerns have to be better understood, unanticipated vulnerabilities identified, and viable solutions to critical threats devised, before the wide cloud deployment can take place. This workshop aims to bring together research efforts from both the academia and industry. We encourage submissions on theoretical, practical, as well as experimental studies related to all aspects of security and privacy in cloud computing. Topics of interests include (but are not limited to) the following topic categories: - Secure cloud architecture - Cloud access control and key management - Identification and privacy in cloud - Computation over encrypted data - Integrity assurance for data outsourcing - Software and data segregation security - Secure management of virtualized resources - Joint security and privacy aware protocol design - Failure detection and prediction - Secure data management within and across data centers - Trusted computing technology and clouds - Availability, recovery and auditing - Integrity and verifiable computation - Secure mobile cloud Authors are invited to submit either Research Papers or Position Papers or both. Position Papers that define new problems in cloud computing security or provide visions and clarifications of cloud computing security are solicited. Regular Research Papers that present novel research results on security and privacy in cloud computing, and Short Research Papers that describe work-in-progress ideas are also welcome. Research Papers and Position Papers will be reviewed separately. [Time Table] Manuscript submission: Jul. 1st, 2013 Acceptance notification: Aug. 9th, 2013 Final Manuscript due: Aug. 16th, 2013 Workshop Date: Oct. 14, 2013 [Paper Submission] Form of Manucript: All paper submissions should follow the IEEE 8.5" x 11" Two-Column Format. Regular Research Paper submission can have 10 pages plus up to 2 over-length pages. If the paper is accepted for publication, an over-length fee will be charged to each of the over-length pages, at $200 per page in the final camera-ready version. Position Papers and Short Research Papers, on the other hand, are allowed to be up to 5 pages.
