This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed joint post proceedings of two international workshops, the 7th International Workshop on Data Privacy Management, DPM 2012, and the 5th International Workshop on Autonomous and Spontaneous Security, SETOP 2012, held in Pisa, Italy, in September 2012. The volume contains 13 full papers selected out of 31 submissions and 3 keynote lectures from the DPM workshop and 10 papers selected among numerous submissions from the SETOP workshop. The contributions from DPM cover topics from location privacy, citizens' privacy, privacy, authentication with anonymity, privacy in distributed systems, privacy policies, and automated privacy enforcement. The SETOP contributions provide a unique view of ongoing security research work in a number of emerging environments that are becoming part of the global ICT infrastructure, from content-centric to mobile and wireless networks. Also, some of them cover the key role of run-time enforcement in process and service security. The topics of SETOP papers include: security policy deployment; distributed intrusion detection; autonomous and spontaneous response; privacy policies; secure localization; context aware and ubiquitous computing; identity management.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the two international workshops DPM 2009, the 4th International Workshop on Data Privacy Management, and SETOP 2009, the Second International Workshop on Autonomous and Spontaneous Security, collocated with the ESORICS 2009 symposium in St. Malo, France, in September 2009. The 8 revised full papers for DPM 2009, selected from 23 submissions, presented together with two keynote lectures are accompanied by 9 revised full papers of SETOP 2009; all papers were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in the book. The DPM 2009 papers cover topics such as privacy in service oriented architectures, privacy-preserving mechanisms, crossmatching and indistinguishability techniques, privacy policies, and disclosure of information. The SETOP 2009 papers address all current issues within the sope of security policies, identification and privacy, as well as security mechanisms.

The volume contains 7 full and 4 short papers plus 1 keynote talk from the DPM workshop; 2 full papers and 1 keynote talk from the SETOP workshop; and 7 full papers and 1 keynote talk from the QASA workshop - selected out of 52 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on data privacy management; autonomous and spontaneous security; and quantitative aspects in security assurance.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed joint post proceedings of two international workshops, the 6th International Workshop on Data Privacy Management, DPM 2011, and the 4th International Workshop on Autonomous and Spontaneous Security, SETOP 2011, held in Leuven, Belgium, in September 2011. The volume contains 9 full papers and 1 short paper from the DPM workshop and 9 full papers and 2 short papers from the SETOP workshop, as well as the keynote paper. The contributions from DPM cover topics from location privacy, privacy-based metering and billing, record linkage, policy-based privacy, application of data privacy in recommendation systems, privacy considerations in user profiles, in RFID, in network monitoring, in transactions protocols, in usage control, and in customer data. The topics of the SETOP contributions are access control, policy derivation, requirements engineering, verification of service-oriented-architectures, query and data privacy, policy delegation and service orchestration.

This Research Handbook is an insightful overview of the key rules, concepts and tensions in privacy and data protection law. It highlights the increasing global significance of this area of law, illustrating the many complexities in the field through a blend of theoretical and empirical perspectives.

This book analyzes the latest advances in privacy, security and risk technologies within cloud environments. With contributions from leading experts, the text presents both a solid overview of the field and novel, cutting-edge research. A Glossary is also included at the end of the book. Topics and features: considers the various forensic challenges for legal access to data in a cloud computing environment; discusses privacy impact assessments for the cloud, and examines the use of cloud audits to attenuate cloud security problems; reviews conceptual issues, basic requirements and practical suggestions for provisioning dynamically configured access control services in the cloud; proposes scoped invariants as a primitive for analyzing a cloud server for its integrity properties; investigates the applicability of existing controls for mitigating information security risks to cloud computing environments; describes risk management for cloud computing from an enterprise perspective.

"This book provides the latest empirical research and theoretical frameworks in the area of information security, presenting research on developing sufficient security measures for new environments by discussing challenges faced by researchers as well as unconventional solutions to these problems"--Provided by publisher.

The censorship and surveillance of individuals, societies, and countries have been a long-debated ethical and moral issue. In consequence, it is vital to explore this controversial topic from all angles. Censorship, Surveillance, and Privacy: Concepts, Methodologies, Tools, and Applications is a vital reference source on the social, moral, religious, and political aspects of censorship and surveillance. It also explores the techniques of technologically supported censorship and surveillance. Highlighting a range of topics such as political censorship, propaganda, and information privacy, this multi-volume book is geared towards government officials, leaders, professionals, policymakers, media specialists, academicians, and researchers interested in the various facets of censorship and surveillance.

This book provides an overview of the research work on data privacy and privacy enhancing technologies carried by the participants of the ARES project. ARES (Advanced Research in Privacy an Security, CSD2007-00004) has been one of the most important research projects funded by the Spanish Government in the fields of computer security and privacy. It is part of the now extinct CONSOLIDER INGENIO 2010 program, a highly competitive program which aimed to advance knowledge and open new research lines among top Spanish research groups. The project started in 2007 and will finish this 2014. Composed by 6 research groups from 6 different institutions, it has gathered an important number of researchers during its lifetime. Among the work produced by the ARES project, one specific work package has been related to privacy. This books gathers works produced by members of the project related to data privacy and privacy enhancing technologies. The presented works not only summarize important research carried in the project but also serve as an overview of the state of the art in current research on data privacy and privacy enhancing technologies.

Technological innovation and evolution continues to improve personal and professional lifestyles, as well as general organizational and business practices; however, these advancements also create potential issues in the security and privacy of the user’s information. Innovative Solutions for Access Control Management features a comprehensive discussion on the trending topics and emergent research in IT security and governance. Highlighting theoretical frameworks and best practices, as well as challenges and solutions within the topic of access control and management, this publication is a pivotal reference source for researchers, practitioners, students, database vendors, and organizations within the information technology and computer science fields.
