Welcome to participate in UbiSec 2024, Changsha, China, December 29 - 31, 2024! Changsha is a famous historical and cultural city with a variety of interest. This city has been an important grain production base in China since ancient times. The green and verdant Mt. Yuelu stands in the city and Xiangjiang River is clear as a mirror passing through the city. Orange Isle lies in the heart of the river. In particular, Changsha is very close to Chairman Mao's former residence within one-hour driving. Nowadays, being an intellectual center, Changsha has over 100 research institutions and engineering laboratories. Hybrid rice breeding and the Tianhe supercomputer are the main scientific research achievements.
The 4th International Conference on Ubiquitous Security (UbiSec 2024) stems from three conference/symposium/workshop series:
(1) The well-established SpaCCS conference series with Springer LNCS: UbiSec is inspired by the SpaCCS style of three tracks (Security, Privacy, and Anonymity, "Spa" for short), which covers "Big Security" leveraging computation, communication and storage ("CCS" for short) systems and networks. UbiSec extends this style with three new tracks: Cyberspace Security, Cyberspace Privacy, and Cyberspace Anonymity.
(2) The UbiSafe symposium series: UbiSec follows the UbiSafe vision on "Ubiquitous Safety", also meaning that "YOU (will) BE SAFE" (pronounced "UbiSafe"). UbiSec extends this vision to "Ubiquitous Security", using "Big Security" to embrace NOT ONLY security, privacy and anonymity, BUT ALSO safety, reliability, dependability, trustworthiness and more, also meaning that "YOU (will) BE SEC(ure)" (pronounced "UbiSec").
(3) The IWCSS workshop series: UbiSec follows the IWCSS theme on "Cyberspace Security", with "Cyberspace" as the 5th national sovereign space besides the traditional four domains of land, sea, air, and aerospace. UbiSec extends this theme to "Ubiquitous Security", meaning that cyberspace will be secure, physical world will be secure, social networking systems will be secure, and thus "YOU (will) BE SECure"!
The UbiSec 2024 Conference ("The Conference" for short) is the fourth event in the series of conferences/symposia/workshops which are devoted to security, privacy and anonymity in cyberspace, physical world, and social networks. The Conference covers many dimensions including security algorithms and architectures, privacy-aware policies, regulations and techniques, anonymous computation and communication, encompassing fundamental theoretical approaches, practical experimental projects, and commercial application systems for cyberspace, physical world, and social networking systems. As applications of computer and information technology have permeated in every aspect of our daily life, the issues of security, privacy, and anonymity have become increasingly critical. The Conference will provide a forum for world-class researchers to gather and share their research achievements, emerging ideas and trends in the highly challenging research fields.
UbiSec 2024 follows the UbiSec 2023 conference in Exeter, UbiSec 2022 conference in Zhangjiajie and the UbiSec 2021 in Guangzhou, and also the traditions of previous successful SpaCCS/UbiSafe/IWCSS conference/symposium/workshop series, held in Nanjing, China (SpaCCS 2020/UbiSafe 2020), Guangzhou,China (IWCSS 2020); Altanta, USA (SpaCCS 2019/UbiSafe 2019), Guangzhou, China (IWCSS 2019); Melbourne, Australia (SpaCCS 2018/UbiSafe 2018), Guangzhou China (IWCSS 2018); Guangzhou, China (SpaCCS 2017/UbiSafe 2017/IWCSS 2017); Zhangjiajie, China (SpaCCS 2016/UbiSafe 2016); Helsinki, Finland (UbiSafe 2015); Beijing, China (UbiSafe 2014); Melbourne, Australia (UbiSafe 2013); Liverpool, UK (UbiSafe 2012); Changsha, China (UbiSafe 2011); Chengdu China (UbiSafe 2009); and Niagara Falls, Canada (UbiSafe 2007). The conference aims at bringing together researchers and practitioners in the world working in the research fields of security, privacy, and anonymity aspects of computer systems and networks. The conference will focus on broad areas of architectures, algorithms, techniques, and applications for cyberspace security, cyberspace privacy, and cyberspace anonymity.

About the conference
===================
The Indian Conference on Logic and its Applications (ICLA) is the primary conference of the Association for Logic in India (ALI [1]). It is a forum for bringing together researchers from a variety of fields in which formal logic plays a significant and often foundational role: Mathematics, Computer Science, Philosophy, Linguistics and Cognitive Science. A special feature of ICLA is the inclusion of studies in systems of logic in the Indian tradition, as well as historical research on logic. Details of the previous ICLA 2023 can be found at [2], and those of the earlier editions of the conference at the ALI website.

Data Privacy Management (DPM 2024)
19th International Workshop
September 19, 2024, Bydgoszcz, Poland
(co-located with ESORICS 2024)
website: https://deic.uab.cat/dpm/dpm2024/

SCOPE
======
DPM is an annual international workshop covering research in data
privacy management. Organizations are increasingly concerned
about the privacy of information that they manage (as witnessed,
for example, by lawsuits filed against organizations for
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 preserving data
integration and engineering, privacy preserving access control
mechanisms, information-oriented security, and query execution on
privacy-sensitive data for partial answers. Starting from these
observations, the aim of DPM is to discuss and exchange ideas related
to data privacy management. We invite papers from researchers and
practitioners working in privacy, security, trustworthy data systems
and related areas to submit their original papers in this workshop.
Submissions by PhD students as well as controversial ideas are
encouraged. Case studies (successful or not) are also encouraged.
TOPICS
========
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Privacy in Machine Learning
- Privacy Information Management
- Privacy Policy-based Infrastructures and Architectures
- Privacy-oriented Access Control Languages and Models
- Privacy in Trust Management
- Privacy in Cryptocurrencies
- Privacy Data Integration
- Privacy Risk Assessment and Assurance
- Privacy Services
- Privacy Policy Analysis
- Data Protection Regulations in Practice
- Cryptographic Protocols for Privacy
- Query Execution over Privacy Sensitive Data
- Privacy Preserving Data Mining
- Privacy for Integrity-based Computing
- Privacy Monitoring and Auditing
- Privacy in Social Networks
- Privacy in Ambient Intelligence (AmI) Applications
- Individual Privacy vs. Corporate/National Security
- Privacy in computer networks
- Privacy and RFIDs
- Privacy and Big Data
- Privacy in sensor networks
- Privacy in the Internet of Things
PAPER SUBMISSIONS
===================
Submitted papers must not substantially overlap papers that have been
published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a
conference with proceedings. Papers can be submitted as Full Papers or
Short Papers. Full papers should be at most 16 pages in the LNCS
format, including the bibliography and well-marked appendices. Short
papers should be at most 8 pages in the LNCS format, including the
bibliography and well-marked appendices. Program Committee members are
not required to read the appendices, so papers should be intelligible
without them.
Authors should indicate whether their paper is a short paper to
differentiate them from full papers. All submissions must be written
in English. It is planned to have accepted papers published by
Springer in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series, the
LNCS template can be found at
http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs/lncs+authors.
Authors must submit their papers by the indicated deadline, using the
EasyChair web site:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=dpm2024
Only PDF files will be accepted (a Latex source file will be required
for the
final version of the accepted papers). All papers will be refereed. Accepted
papers must be presented at the Workshop. At least one author of each
accepted
paper must register to the workshop, by the early date indicated by the
organizers, and present the paper.
