Workshop "Security and Privacy in Future Business Services" at ETRICS'06

Die zunehmende Einbindung von Alltagsgegenständen in vernetzte Informationssysteme - beispielsweise mittels RFID-Chips oder Mobilfunk - eröffnet Chancen für die Gestaltung neuartiger Dienste. Insbesondere in der verbesserten Berücksichtigung individueller Bedürfnisse wird ein enormes wirtschaftliches Potential gesehen. Den neuen Möglichkeiten stehen jedoch auch ernsthafte Risiken gegenüber: So droht mit der zunehmenden Vernetzung und der Erhebung und Speicherung privater Daten die Auflösung der Privatsphäre und der Verlust jeglicher informationellen Selbstbestimmung. Die Akzeptanz solcher neuer Dienste wird wesentlich davon abhängen, wie das Spannungsfeld zwischen Individualisierung von Diensten und dem Schutz privater Informationen technisch, ökonomisch und rechtlich gestaltet wird.
Für Interessierte aus Wissenschaft und Wirtschaft bietet der internationaler Workshop "Security and Privacy in Future Business Services" im kommenden Jahr eine hervorragende Möglichkeit, diese Fragen und deren Relevanz für die Weiterentwicklung der Digitalen Wirtschaft zu diskutieren. Der Workshop ist Teil der internationalen Koferenz "Emerging Trends in Information and Communication Security (ETRICS'06)" vom 6.6. bis 9.6.2006 in Freiburg. Interessierte können im Internet unter http://www.etrics.org/workshops weitere Informationen zum Workshop, zur Teilnahme und zur Einreichung von Beiträgen abrufen oder sich direkt mit den Organisatoren Dr. S. Sackmann und Dr. S. Spiekermann in Verbindung sezten.

Workshop "Security and Privacy in Future Business Services"
at International Conference on Emerging Trends in Information and Communication Security (ETRICS2006) http://www.etrics.org

Individualization of business services is one of the most promising business development prospects for future markets. Customized products and services, individual price differentiation, personalized promotions, and location/time-sensitive addressing of customers are raising marketers' attention. Particularly ubiquitous com¬puting technologies, with their mobile and wireless interfaces, are laying the grounds for these
developments: information about purchase behavior and location, proximity, presence, after-sales usage patterns, and even personal emotional states will potentially be combined and analyzed.

Technical progress, however, not only improves the available data pool but also results in new challenges for security and privacy. Handling the trade-off between high-quality individualized services and maintaining pri¬vacy and security seems to be a key factor for business success. Without suitable mechanisms for enforcing the correct handling of data collection and processing, new service ideas may not receive marketplace acceptance.

This workshop therefore focuses on technical and economic mechanisms addressing the trade-off between privacy and individualization. It aims to bring together privacy experts on an international level to discuss recent advances in trust-promoting mechanisms. To this end, the workshop seeks submissions from academia and industry presenting novel research on theoretical and practical aspects of security and privacy technologies as well as economic models that may enforce a correct handling of sensitive data. Theoretical work, prototypes and experimental studies are equally welcome.

Selected contributions will be invited to submit a full paper to a special issue of the Wirtschaftsinformatik journal.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
==================
* Valuation of personal data/private information
* Private data markets and market mechanisms
* Trust management from a business process perspective

Search / advanced search of the idw archives
Combination of search terms

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.

Brackets

You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).

Phrases

Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.

Selection criteria

You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).

If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
