Scope

The First International Workshop on Data Protection in Mobile and Pervasive Computing (DAPRO) will focus on sensitive data on the mobile and pervasive devices such as phone, laptop, sensor, raspberry pi, pad, RFID, NFC device, VANET node and so on. These devices face more physical threats than other traditional computing devices, and are configured with peripheral interfaces different from traditional computing devices.

This workshop will provide a forum for researchers, engineers and students to present and discuss innovative ideas, research results, applications and experience related to the threats and protections, especially for the sensitive data on these devices.(/p)

Topics

Research contributions are solicited in all areas related to data protection in mobile and pervasive computing, including but not limited to:
 Anonymity and tracking
 Anti-theft
 Backup and remote retrieve
 Lightweight cryptographic scheme and white-box cryptography
 Lightweight intrusion detection and prevention
 Physical threat
 Privacy and location
 Remote trust establishment and trusted computing
 Sensitive data protection
 Usable security
 Vehicular ad-hoc network security

Submission

Papers should be submitted using EasyChair via https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=dapro2014. Authors are invited to submit original papers not previously published nor submitted in parallel for publication to any other conference, workshop or journal. Papers should be in English.
