11th International Workshop on Security and Trust Management (STM 2015)
STM (Security and Trust Management) is a working group of ERCIM.
(European Research Consortium in Informatics and Mathematics). STM 2015 is the eleventh workshop in this series and will be held in Vienna, Austria, in conjunction with the 20th European Symposium On Research in Computer Security (ESORICS 2015). The workshop seeks submissions from academia, industry, and government presenting novel research on all theoretical and practical aspects of security and trust in ICTs. More

10th DPM International Workshop on Data Privacy Management
Organizations are increasingly concerned about the privacy of information that they manage (several people have filed lawsuits against organizations violating the privacy of customer’s data). Thus, the management of privacy-sensitive information is very critical and important for every organization. This poses several challenging problems, such as how to translate the high-level business goals into system-level privacy policies, administration of privacy-sensitive data, privacy data integration and engineering, privacy access control mechanisms, information-oriented security, and query execution on privacy-sensitive data for partial answers.

4th International Workshop on ‘Quantitative Aspects of Security Assurance’ (QASA 2015)
There is increasing need to provide quantification of security assurance over the multi-level development life-cycle of systems & services, e.g., from requirements elicitation to run-time operation and maintenance. Addressing such quantitative aspects, the QASA workshop aims to bring together researchers and practitioners interested in the quantification research dimensions spanning dependability, security, privacy and risk, and with particular emphasis on techniques for service oriented architectures.

2nd International Workshop on Security in highly connected IT Systems (SHCIS’15)
Modern society over the course of the past two decades developed an increasing dependency on their infrastructures in general, and on the availability and correct functionality of their IT systems in particular. While in the early days of the Internet revolution not many IT systems outside the academic world were directly connected to the Internet, the benefits of internetworking began to prevail by the end of the last millennium. Nowadays, all kinds of IT systems, from industrial control systems to nationwide sensor networks, from high-traffic business platforms to e-health applications, are connected to the Internet and thus directly connected to each other. Such highly connected IT systems exhibit their very own peculiarities and need to be studied accordingly. More

International Workshop on Secure Internet of Things 2015 (SIoT 2015)
SIoT 2015 is a community where interested stakeholders, from academia and industry, can present their original work on providing a secure environment for connecting systems in an Internet-specific structure. The wide spread of mobile and embedded devices, able to connect to a network and share information, requires a careful look at the security risks taken by end users. In this context, the workshop will focus on contributions related to the security of mesh and machine-to-machine networks, secure software stacks running on ubiquitous network nodes, and algorithms used to provide secure end-to-end communication between nodes.

1st Workshop on the Security of Cyber-Physical Systems (WOS-CPS 2015)
The 1st Workshop on the Security of Cyber-Physical Systems (WOS-CPS 2015) will be held in Vienna, Austria, in September 2015. Cyber-physical systems (CPS) are physical and engineered systems that interact with the physical environment, whose operations are monitored, coordinated, controlled and integrated by information and communication technologies.  These systems exist everywhere around us, and range in size, complexity and criticality, from embedded systems used in smart vehicles, to SCADA systems in smart grids to control systems in water distribution systems, to smart transportation systems etc. As CPS proliferate, and increasingly interact with us and affect our life, their security becomes of paramount importance. WOS-CPS intends to offer a forum for scientific and engineering discussion on all issues related to the security of CPS.

1st Conference on Cybersecurity of Industrial Control Systems (CyberICS)

The First Cyber ICS workshop aims to address the increasing number of cyber threats that operators of Industrial Control Systems (ICS) have to face around the world. The workshop will bring together researchers, engineers and governmental actors with an interest in the security of industrial control systems in the context of their increasing exposure to cyber-space.
The workshop will focus on topics covering ICSs, including cyber protection and cyber defense of SCADA systems, plant control systems, engineering workstations, substation equipment, programmable logic controllers (PLCs), and other industrial control system. More
