To be held in conjunction with the Sixth International Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security ARES 2011 - http://www.ares-conference.eu
August 22nd - 26th, 2011 Vienna University of Technology Vienna, Austria
While data privacy was in the past mainly assured through procedures, laws or static access control policies, these protection mechanisms tend to be ineffective once data is ubiquitously available, outsourced to partially untrusted servers or processed by third parties. In addition, most current approaches towards achieving privacy - such as anonymisation and aggregation - are either incompatible with the increasing complexity of data usage or easy to compromise due to advances in statistical analysis and availability of side-information. Recent research tries to provide technical solutions in order to minimize the exposure of sensitive data while still allowing data-driven business models. For example, cryptographic schemes such as Secure Multiparty Computation, data-centric protection schemes such as Enterprise Rights Management or trusted virtualization technologies may be used to make IT systems intrinsically privacy friendly, finally contributing to the vision of "privacy by design". The aim of the workshop is to bring together researchers, systems engineers and privacy professionals in order to drive the concept of Privacy by Design and discuss implementation aspects as well as the surrounding legal and economic issues.
The main topics of interest comprise but are not limited to:
design issues of privacy-enhanced systems
cryptographic approaches for privacy
practical aspects of Secure Multiparty Computation
data centric security
Information/Enterprise Rights Management
privacy-enhanced system architectures
privacy and biometrics
privacy in the cloud
Privacy Enhancing Technologies
censorship resistance
economic and legal aspects of privacy
usability of Privacy Enhancing Technologies
