CALL FOR PAPERS

MobiSec's focus is the convergence of information and communication 
technology in mobile scenarios. This convergence is realised in 
intelligent mobile devices, accompanied by the advent of next-generation 
communication networks. Privacy and security aspects need to be covered 
at all layers of mobile networks, from mobile devices, to 
privacy-respecting credentials and mobile identity management, up to 
machine-to-machine communications.

In particular, mobile devices such as Smartphones and Internet Tablets 
have been very successful in commercialization. However, their security 
mechanisms are not always able to deal with the growing trend of 
information-stealing attacks. As mobile communication and information 
processing becomes a commodity, economy and society require protection 
of this precious resource. Mobility and trust in networking go hand in 
hand for future generations of users, who need privacy and security at 
all layers of technology.
In addition, the introduction of new data collection practices and 
data-flows (e.g. sensing data) from the mobile device makes it more 
difficult to understand the new security and privacy threats introduced.

MobiSec strives to bring together the leading-edge of academia and 
industry in mobile systems security, as well as practitioners, standards 
developers and policymakers.
Contributions may range from architecture designs and implementations to 
cryptographic solutions for mobile and resource-constrained devices.

IMPROTANT DATES:

Paper submission deadline (extended): April 2, 2012
Notification of acceptance: May 20, 2012
Camera-Ready submission deadline: June 4, 2012

TOPICS

Technical papers describing original, previously unpublished research, 
not currently under review by another conference or journal, are 
solicited. MobiSec solicits original, high-quality research 
contributions in the form of full papers. The focus is on the security 
of information and communication
systems including mobile networks, devices and applications. Papers from 
other areas, e.g., formal methods, cryptography, database security, 
operating system security, will be considered if a clear connection to 
one of the topics below is demonstrated.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following focus 
areas:

Smartphone Security and Privacy:
     Advanced Security Mechanisms
     Virtualisation Solutions
     Rogue Mobile Application Detection and Protection
     Forensic Analysis

Machine-to-Machine Secure Communication:
     Device Identities and Authentication
     Remote Integrity Validation and Remediation
     Remote Management and Provisioning
     Machine-to-Machine Application Layer Security
     Secure Elements and Trusted Environments

Privacy and Security in Emerging Mobile Applications and Services:
     Privacy-respecting Authentication
     Mobile Identity Management
     Mobile Wallets, Mobile Payments
     Location-based Services and Mobile Sensing

Proposals for panels/demos/workshops/tutorials are solicited.
Potential organisers are welcome to submit a proposal to one of the 
general chairs or the Workshops or Panels chair.

PUBLICATIONS

Accepted papers will be published in Springer's LNICST series and will 
appear in the SpringerLink, one of the largest digital libraries online 
that covers a variety of scientific disciplines, as well as in the 
ICST's own EU Digital Library (EUDL). LNICST volumes are submitted for 
inclusion to leading indexing services, including DBLP, Google Scholar, 
ACM Digital Library, ISI Proceedings, EI Engineering Index, CrossRef, 
Scopus. See 
http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-1068921-0 for more 
information about indexing.
