Call for Papers

IFIP IDMAN 2013 - 3rd IFIP WG 11.6 Working Conference on
Policies & Research in Identity Management
London, UK, 8th-9th April 2013
www.idman2013.com

Background

Building on the success of IDMAN 2007 and 2010 (which were held
in Rotterdam and Oslo, respectively), this conference focuses
on the theory, technologies and applications of identity
management. IFIP IDMAN 2013, the 3rd IFIP WG 11.6 Working
Conference on Policies & Research in Identity Management, will
take place between the 8th and 10th of April 2013 at Royal
Holloway, University of London, UK.


Conference scope

The world of the 21st century is, more than ever, global and impersonal. As
a result of increasing cyber fraud and cyber terrorism, the demand for
better technical methods of identification is growing, not only in companies
and organisations but also in the world at large. Moreover, in our society
digital identities increasingly play a role in the provision of eGovernment
and eCommerce services. For practical reasons, Identity Management Systems
are needed that are usable and interoperable.

At the same time, individuals increasingly leave trails of personal data
when using the Internet, which allows them to be profiled and which may be
stored for many years to come. Technical trends such as Cloud Computing and
pervasive computing make personal data processing non-transparent, and make
it increasingly difficult for users to control their personal spheres. As
part of this tendency, surveillance and monitoring are increasingly
present in society, both in the public and private domains. Whilst the
original
intention is to contribute to security and safety, surveillance and
monitoring might, in some cases, have unintended or even contradictory
effects. Moreover, the omnipresence of surveillance and monitoring systems
might directly conflict with public and democratic liberties.
These developments raise substantial new challenges for privacy and identity
management at the technical, social, ethical, regulatory, and legal levels.

Identity management challenges the information security research community
to focus on interdisciplinary and holistic approaches, while retaining the
benefits of previous research efforts.
