eGSSN 2012 - The First International Workshop on Trust, Security and Privacy in e-Government, e- Systems & Social Networking (eGSSN-2012)

The 1st International Workshop on Trust, Security and Privacy in e-Government, e-Systems & Social Networking (eGSSN-12)
http://webs.um.es/jmalcaraz/eGSSN12
In conjunction with 11th IEEE International Conference on Trust, Security and Privacy in Computing and Communications (IEEE TrustCom-12)
Venue & Dates: Liverpool, UK, 25-27 June, 2012
Technically Co-Sponsored by IEEE and IEEE Computer Society
Introduction
Electronic systems (e-systems) have increased tremendously in recent years. Clear examples of e-systems include e-commerce, e-payment systems, e-government systems and social networks. The incredibly amount of people using these systems make them more vulnerable to receive a great diversity of attacks such as denial of service, hijacking, spoofing, man in the middle, etc. Moreover, the information sensible usually managed in e-systems is another reason for receiving attacks intensively. This workshop aims to identify and explore different issues and challenges related to security aspects in e-systems in general and specially in e-government and social networking. Questions like … how to preserve privacy and anonymity in social network? How to provide a secure authentication for e-government? What is a suitable trust model for e-systems? How to federate social networks? How e-goverment may manage risk? …are those waiting for answers.
This workshop will be held in conjunction with the 11th IEEE International Conference on Trust, Security and Privacy in Computing and Communications (IEEE TrustCom-12), an ideal vehicle for bringing together researchers, scientists, engineers, academics and students all around the world to share the latest updates on new security technologies that would shape the next generation of mobile and wireless systems and technology platforms.
