This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post conference proceedings of the 6th IFIP WG 9.2, 9.6/11.7, 11.4, 11.6/PrimeLife International Summer School, held in Helsingborg, Sweden, in August 2010. The 27 revised papers were carefully selected from numerous submissions during two rounds of reviewing. They are organized in topical sections on terminology, privacy metrics, ethical, social, and legal aspects, data protection and identity management, eID cards and eID interoperability, emerging technologies, privacy for eGovernment and AAL applications, social networks and privacy, privacy policies, and usable privacy.
Informatics - 10 Years Back, 10 Years Ahead presents a unique collection of expository papers on major current issues in the field of computer science and information technology. The 26 contributions written by leading researchers on personal invitation assess the state of the art of the field by looking back over the past decade, presenting important results, identifying relevant open problems, and developing visions for the decade to come. This book marks two remarkable and festive moments: the 10th anniversary of the International Research and Conference Center for Computer Science in Dagstuhl, Germany and the 2000th volume published in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the International Conference on Emerging Trends in Information and Communication Security, ETRICS 2006, held in Freiburg, Germany, in June 2006. The book presents 36 revised full papers, organized in topical sections on multilateral security; security in service-oriented computing, secure mobile applications; enterprise privacy; privacy, identity, and anonymity; security engineering; security policies; security protocols; intrusion detection; and cryptographic security.
At the end of the PrimeLife EU project, a book will contain the main research results. It will address primarily researchers. In addition to fundamental research it will contain description of best practice solutions.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 4th International Information Hiding Workshop, IHW 2001, held in Pittsburgh, PA, USA, in April 2001. The 29 revised full papers presented were carefully selected during two rounds of reviewing and revision. All current issues in information hiding are addressed including watermarking and fingerprinting of digitial audio, still image and video; anonymous communications; steganography and subliminal channels; covert channels; and database inference channels.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post conference proceedings of the 5th IFIP WG 9.2, 9.6/11.7, 11.4, 11.6/PrimeLife International Summer School, held in Nice, France, in September 2009. The 25 revised papers were carefully selected from numerous submissions during two rounds of reviewing. They are organized in topical sections on lifelong privacy, privacy for social network sites and collaborative systems, privacy for e-government applications, privacy and identity management for e-health and ambient assisted living applications, anonymisation and privacy-enhancing technologies, identity management and multilateral security, and usability, awareness and transparency tools.
The storage, routing and transmission of information, either in the form of digital data or of analog signals, plays a central role in modern society. To ensure that such information is protected from access by unauthorized persons is an important new challenge. The development of the theory and practical techniques needed to meet this challenge is the goal of current cryptological research. This research is highly varied and multidisciplinary. It is concerned with fundamental problems in mathematics and theoretical computer science as well as with the engineering aspects of complex information systems. Cryptology today ranks among the most active and interesting areas of research in both science and engineering. EUROCRYPT '85 maintained the tradition of the three previous workshops in this series (Paris 1984, Udine 1983, Burg Feuerstein 1982) with its emphasis on recent developments in cryptology, but also made a concerted effort to encompass more traditional topics in cryptology such as shift register theory and system theory. The many papers on these topics in this volume are witness to the success of this effort.
Anonymity and unobservability have become key issues in the context of securing privacy on the Internet and in other communication networks. Services that provide anonymous and unobservable access to the Internet are important for electronic commerce applications as well as for services where users want to remain anonymous. This book is devoted to the design and realization of anonymity services for the Internet and other communcation networks. The book offers topical sections on: attacks on systems, anonymous publishing, mix systems, identity management, pseudonyms and remailers. Besides nine technical papers, an introduction clarifying the terminology for this emerging area is presented as well as a survey article introducing the topic to a broader audience interested in security issues.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 4th International Workshop on Privacy Enhancing Technologies, PET 2004, held in Toronto, Canada in May 2004. The 20 revised full papers presented were carefully selected from 68 submissions during two rounds of reviewing and improvement. Among the topics addressed are mix networks, mix firewalls, traffic analysis, sequence analysis, re-encryption, electromagnetic eavesdropping, anonymity of banknotes, IPv6, trustworthy environments, flow correlation attacks, anonymity measuring, mix cascades, trust negotiation, privacy policies, and personalization.
his book presents the refereed proceedings of the 6th European Symposium on Research in Computer Security, ESORICS 2000, held in Toulouse, France in October 2000. The 19 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 75 submissions. The papers are organized in sections on personal devices and smart cards, electronic commerce protocols, access control, protocol verification, Internet security, security property analysis, and mobile agents.
