Welcome to D-SPAN 2012, the Third International Workshop on Data
Security and PrivAcy in wireless Networks (D-SPAN). The workshop
focuses on defining novel problems and developing novel techniques
for data security and privacy issues in wireless and mobile networks.
With the emergence of data-intensive wireless networks such as
wireless sensor networks and data-centric mobile applications such
as location-based services, the traditional boundaries between these
three disciplines are blurring. This workshop solicits papers from
two main categories: (1) papers that consider the security and
privacy of data collection, transmission, storage, publishing,
and sharing in wireless networks broadly defined, e.g., MANET,
cellular, vehicular, ad hoc, cognitive, as well as sensor networks,
and (2) papers that use data analytics techniques to address
security and privacy problems in wireless networks. The workshop
provides a venue for researchers to present new ideas with impact
on three communities –wireless networks, databases, and security.
All accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings
published by the IEEE Computer Society Press.

The list of topics includes, but not limited to,
• Location privacy in wireless networks
• Secure data collection and aggregation for wireless sensor networks
• Secure query processing over wireless sensor networks
• Secure and privacy-preserving data streaming
• Key exchange, distribution and management in wireless networks
• Secure data processing in mobile ad-hoc networks (MANET)
• Secure data collection in body-area networks
• Throughput-Security trade-offs in wireless networks
