The Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of devices and smart things that provides a pervasive environment in which people can interact with both the cyber and physical worlds. As the number and variety of connected objects continue to grow and the devices themselves become smarter, users’ expectations in terms of adaptive and self-governing digital environments are also on the rise. Although, this connectivity and the resultant smarter living is highly attractive to general public and profitable for the industry, there are also inherent concerns. The most challenging of these refer to the privacy and security of data, user trust of the digital systems, and relevant authentication mechanisms. These aspects call for novel network architectures and middleware platforms based on new communication technologies; as well as the adoption of novel context-aware management approaches and more efficient tools and devices. In this context, this book explores central issues of privacy, security and trust with regard to the IoT environments, as well as technical solutions to help address them. The main topics covered include:• Basic concepts, principles and related technologies• Security/privacy of data, and trust issues• Mechanisms for security, privacy, trust and authentication• Success indicators, performance metrics and future directions. This reference text is aimed at supporting a number of potential audiences, including• Network Specialists, Hardware Engineers and Security Experts • Students, Researchers, Academics and Practitioners.

"Web Security, Privacy & Commerce" cuts through the hype and the front page stories. It tells readers what the real risks are and explains how to minimize them. Whether a casual (but concerned) Web surfer or a system administrator responsible for the security of a critical Web server, this book will tells users what they need to know.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Security, Privacy, and Applied Cryptography Engineering, SPACE 2015, held in Jaipur, India, in October 2015. The 17 full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 57 submissions. The book also contains 4 invited talks in full-paper length. The papers are devoted to various aspects of security, privacy, applied cryptography, and cryptographic engineering.

This volume constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th IFIP WG 11.2 International Workshop on Information Security Theory and Practice: Security, Privacy and Trust in Computing Systems and Ambient Intelligent Ecosystems, WISTP 2012, held in Egham, UK, in June 2012. The 9 revised full papers and 8 short papers presented together with three keynote speeches were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. They are organized in topical sections on protocols, privacy, policy and access control, multi-party computation, cryptography, and mobile security.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Cloud Computing, Security, Privacy in New Computing Environments, CloudComp 2016, and the First EAI International Conference SPNCE 2016, both held in Guangzhou, China, in November and December 2016.The proceedings contain 10 full papers selected from 27 submissions and presented at CloudComp 2016 and 12 full papers selected from 69 submissions and presented at SPNCE 2016. CloudComp 2016 presents recent advances and experiences in clouds, cloud computing and related ecosystems and business support. SPNCE 2016 focuses on security and privacy aspects of new computing environments including mobile computing, big data, cloud computing and other large-scale environments.

This book contains the Proceedings of the 21st IFIP TC-11 International Information Security Conference (IFIPISEC 2006) on "Security and Privacy in Dynamic Envir- ments" held in May 22-24 2006 in Karlstad, Sweden. The first IFIPISEC conference was arranged in May 1983 in Stockholm, Sweden, one year before TC- 1 1 was founded, with the active participation of the Swedish IT Security Community. The IFIPISEC conferences have since then become the flagship events of TC-11. We are very pleased that we succeeded with our bid to after 23 years hold the IFIPISEC conference again in Sweden. The IT environment now includes novel, dynamic approaches such as mobility, wearability, ubiquity, ad hoc use, mindhody orientation, and businesslmarket ori- tation. This modem environment challenges the whole information security research community to focus on interdisciplinary and holistic approaches whilst retaining the benefit of previous research efforts. Papers offering research contributions focusing on dynamic environments in addition to other aspects of computer security and privacy were solicited for submission to IFIPISEC 2006. We received 141 submissions which were all reviewed by at least three members of the international program committee.
