Computers, and the world they touch, are interesting. The owners and keepers of computing resources and stored information determine who shall be granted or denied access. `Trusted computing' would have us believe that we are capable of trusting our computers and our networks with just a little more effort in the design and implementation process. However, experience has not borne this idea out and we are faced with more uncertainty about access to information and resources than ever. E-commerce vendors compete for the trust of consumers, not only by ensuring the privacy and security of the customers and their transactions, but also by attempting to ensure the customers’ trust of such privacy and security.
Suggested topics (but not limited):
We seek papers that focus on privacy and/or security and/or trust as they are related to electronic commerce. For example, papers might seek to consider (amongst others):
- Privacy enhancing technologies, identity management, and the maintenance of privacy in circumstances of distrust and mistrust
- Network and wireless security and intrusion detection;
- Formalisations of trust, distrust and mistrust, their relation to such concepts as (and formalizations of) trust and / or confidence, and the inter-alia impact in formal computational terms;
- The relationship(s) between privacy, security and/or trust in (e.g.) digital rights management, lawful surveillance, reputation, handling spam, anonymity, identity theft and RFID technologies, too name a few.
