SeceS 2011 - The First International Workshop on Security and Privacy in e-Societies SeceS 2011

Recently information technologies have invaded almost every aspect of our modern life. The effects of the World Wide Web and more recently Web 2.0, computers, and telecommunications on societies have emerged to cover new form of social cyberspace as reference to digital society or e-Society. In fact, the e-Society is the result of an emerging era of digitalizing different forms of multimedia information making time and space compression a constant evolving task. E-Society represents a revolutionary change in the way people interact with each others’ beyond countries boundaries. It provides individuals, such as end-users and organizations, the ability to easily share and publish corporate data, visions, and strategies. Nonetheless, with this emerging social interaction and the wide range of shared data, several privacy and confidentiality concerns arise. Mechanisms used to harvest social information represent a privacy threat for users in many situations and such concerns fall beyond security administrators’ duties and target end-users in their daily tasks. Approaches proposed in the literature to provide safe data publishing have several drawbacks related, on one hand, to the heterogeneous types of data addressed, and, on the other hand, to complexity in specifying privacy and security rules.
The aim of the 1st International Workshop on Security and Privacy Preserving in e-Societies is to pin down the latest techniques, studies, and approaches related to security and privacy preserving in the digital society in the following topics:

Access control
Content protection
Data protection
Database security
Data association detection
Data integrity
Information hiding
Inference detection
Inference elimination
Knowledge discovery and privacy
Multimedia mining threats
