The conference attracts a nice mix of participants from academia, government and industry. Organizers for the 2015 event is ISEG, University of Lisbon (Portugal). Administrative offices for the conference are at ISEG, University of Lisbon.

Conference theme for 2015 is: Security in the Internet of Things

With widespread use of internet-based technologies and the general virtualisation of work, the manner in which individuals identify with organisations and enterprise-individual relations enterprises is evolving. Such changes are defining the manner in which privacy is handled, identity is protected and responsibility and accountability established. With this in mind, the event will focus on the themes of security in the Internet of Things. Specific topics that will be covered include, but not limited to:
-theoretical aspects of identity, security and privacy;
-roles and responsibilities in security management;
-challenges posed by Web 2.0 and 3.0;
-access and authentication in information-based societies;
-cases in security management;
-regulatory and legal aspects of identity, privacy and security;
-ethical challenges in a networked society.
