-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] reminder: Call for Workshops - ECIS 2015 in Muenster - deadline 19 sept 2014 Datum: Mon, 15 Sep 2014 20:37:54 +0200 Von: Remko Helms <r.w.helms(a)uu.nl> An: <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Reminder ~~~ Call for Workshops - ECIS 2015 in Muenster ~~~ Important deadlines: - Any time until September 19th inform workshop chairs about your “intention to submit” - Until October 10th full workshop proposals have to be handed in The European Conferences of Information Systems (ECIS) increasingly attract co-located workshops on topics that relate to Information Systems. Continuing this trend, the 23rd ECIS in Münster in May 2015 aims to feature a number of co-located workshops. We invite the IS community to propose Pre-ECIS workshops to be held prior to the ECIS conference. The main event will be held from Tuesday 26th (Welcome Reception) until Friday 29th of May 2015. Workshops can be scheduled on the 26th of May 2015. The duration of a workshop could be one day or half a day. The number of workshops may be limited because of space limitations. You are invited to submit an “intention to submit” workshop proposal any time until September 19th 2014 to the Workshop Chairs. This should be an informal email, describing briefly the theme of the workshop. The idea is to try and give early feedback to proposers about similar workshop proposals and enable them to consider merger ahead of time. Please do not hesitate to ask questions or raise issues. You are then invited to submit a proposal (up to 2,000 words long) for evaluation by the 10th of October 2014. Please be mindful of specifying in your proposal: - Title of the workshop - Main contact - Workshop organizers (incl. contact details) - Theme of the workshop - Format of the workshop (incl. duration) - Justification for being ECIS pre-conference workshop (suitability to ECIS audience) - Names of the program committee (initial list) - Plan for proceedings and publications / journal special issue - Target audience and expected attendance (historical data may help here) - Planned acceptance rate (if applicable) - Schedule for the workshop (deadlines etc.) - Special equipment needed (assume projector and screen + flipcharts will be available) - Prior experience of the proposers in workshops organization The decision about acceptance/rejection of workshop proposals will be made by the Workshops Chairs in consultation with the Conference and Program Chairs. Evaluation criteria include overall quality and the fit with respect to the expected ECIS 2015 program as well as venue capacity. Note that proposals are especially encouraged on emerging topics and should not already be covered by the main conference. Also tutorials on teaching, research (methods and tools) and academic careers are welcomed. The organizing committee will help in organizing for the rooms and technology and will provide catering at a fixed cost per participant. The organizers of accepted workshops will be responsible for their own reviewing process, publicity (e.g., website and call for papers), and proceedings production. They will be required to closely cooperate with the Workshops Chairs and the ECIS 2015 local organizers to finalize all organizational details. Workshop attendees must pay the ECIS 2015 workshop registration fee. If workshop attendees would also like to attend the main conference, they as well have to pay the conference registration fee. Workshop registrations and payments will be done via the conference registration system and thus the payments to the facilities will be taken care of by the local ECIS organizers. In particular, local organizers may require that all workshops adhere to specific requirements regarding the general timetable, registration and catering. Workshop organizers must inform the Workshop Chairs of the numbers of submissions and acceptances as these numbers become available. Workshops may be cancelled for extremely low submissions or registrations at the early registration deadline. Please note that the duration of the workshop might be adjusted based on the number of submissions received. Only accepted workshops are official ECIS 2015 workshops and enjoy support for the organizing committee. Please send your intention to submit a proposal for a Pre-ECIS workshop by the 19th of September 2014. Further deadlines: - Any time until September 19th, workshop proposers may send an “intention to submit” message to the workshop chairs. - Until September 26th, the Workshop Chairs will administrate the intentions handed in up to this point and, if necessary, suggest mergers. - Until October 10th, the full proposals have to be handed in. - November 7th, notification of acceptance of proposals and start of detailed discussions of workshop requirements and possibilities. - November 21st, final decisions (considering space at the venue). Workshop leaders can start sending out their CFP. Workshop Chairs: - Katerina Pramatari (Athens University of Economics and Business - AUEB, Greece) - Remko Helms (University of Utrecht, Netherlands) Please submit your intention to submit as well as your proposal to wschairs(a)ecis2015.eu, which will reach both of them. We look forward to receiving your proposals! _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] Journal of Information Privacy and Security (JIPS) | Call For Papers & Latest Issue Content - Vol. 10, Issues 2 & 3, 2014 Datum: Wed, 3 Sep 2014 20:15:31 +0000 Von: Arslan, Faruk <farslan(a)utep.edu> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> A.Call For Papers: Journal of Information Privacy and Security (JIPS) http://jips.utep.edu Mission The mission of the Journal of Information Privacy and Security (JIPS) is to serve both academics and practitioners as a reliable source on issues of information privacy and security. The Journal is a high quality refereed journal that seeks support from academicians, industry experts and specific government agencies. The JIPS focuses on publishing articles that address the paradoxical nature of privacy versus security amidst current global conditions. It is increasingly important that various constituents of information begin to understand their role in finding solutions to achieve a delicate balance between security and privacy. The JIPS will facilitate understanding of the information assurance technical framework as it pertains to government agencies, companies and individuals. The topics may include the information privacy and security issues pertaining to initiatives on counter-terrorism efforts around the world, the impact of U.S. federal regulation and compliance issues facing global corporations, the impact of privacy and security initiatives within small and medium enterprises (SMEs), and e-gambling. Article submissions are encouraged from both academics and practitioners. Each issue will include high quality articles from academics and practitioners, case studies, book reviews, and industry interviews. The Journal addresses issues of privacy and security from a global perspective and will consider articles with a cross-functional focus. The Journal will include articles in the following areas: - Information Assurance frameworks - Network security and impact on corporate infrastructure - Privacy laws and impact on information compliance issues - The duality of privacy and security and impact on corporate operations - Governmental regulations and changes on information security requirements - Data transfer issues across nations, states, and corporations - Privacy and security requirements in B2B and B2C information flows - Cross-functional aspects of information assurance and requirements faced by various business functions within companies - Web sites, portals and the issue of trust - Information privacy and security as it relates to end-users - Applications and case studies in privacy and security issues facing business organizations, government agencies and individuals - Emerging topics such as biometrics, software utilities, and IT obligations and how they change the business environment We also welcome suggestions on special issue covering a relevant topic. Review Process Each article will be blind-reviewed by three members of the editorial review board. Reviewer recommendation will be considered by the Editor-in-Chief or an Associate Editor. For a revision and rewrite, a revised paper will be sent to one of the Editors for final approval. The final decision will be made by the Editor-in-Chief. Interested authors should consult the journal's manuscript submission guidelines at http://jips.utep.edu All inquiries and submissions should be sent to: Editor-in-Chief: Dr. Kallol Bagchi, kbagchi(a)utep.edu <mailto:kbagchi@utep.edu> B.Content of Journal of Privacy and Security (JIPS), Vol. 10, Issue 2, 2014 Special Issue: Most Prevalent Information Security Topics: Insider Threat, Password Authentication Problems and Other Ethical Issues Guest Editorial, By Humayun Zafar Ph.D., Kennesaw State University Paper 1. The Enemy Within the Insider: Detecting the Insider Threat Through Addiction Theory Michele Maasbe and Nicole L. Beebe, The University of Texas at San Antonio, U.S.A. Abstract. "Insiders" remain a significant threat to organizations--evidenced by recent cases involving Robert Hansen, Bradley Manning, and Edward Snowden---even in light of significant movement toward neutralizing the threat through detection and prevention. Insiders pose detection challenges for security professionals, because they often have legitimate access and intimate organizational knowledge. Nonetheless, past insider threat detection research has predominantly focused on signature-based detection of digital indicators of insider activity and behavioral profiling. This article develops a novel relationship between addiction theory and the insider threat from an information systems perspective. We introduce seven propositions concerning this relationship, addiction antecedents, and the factors moderating the relationship between addiction and the insider threat. This model has significant implications for the insider threat detection challenge, as it provides new signals that may be useful for detection, supporting practitioners and future research. Paper 2. Factors for measuring password-based authentication practices Herbert J. Mattord, Coles College Of Business, Kennesaw State University, Kennesaw, GA, U.S.A. Yair Levy, Graduate School Of Computer And Information Sciences, Nova Southeastern University, Ft. Lauderdale, FL, U.S.A. Steven Furnell, Centre For Security, Communications And Network Research, School Of Computing And Mathematics, Plymouth University, Plymouth, Devon, U.K. Abstract. Organizations continue to rely on password-based authentication methods to control access to their Web-based systems. This research study developed a benchmarking instrument intended to assess authentication methods used in Web-based information systems (IS). This approach explored how authentication practices can be measured in three component areas: 1) password strength requirements, 2) password usage methods, and 3) password reset requirements. This paper explores the criteria that are required to define these component areas. This research validated the criteria proposed for measurement the three component areas using a panel of experts drawn from industry and academia. Simultaneously, the same panel provided preferences for the relative weight of specific criteria within each component area. The panel of experts also assessed the relative weight of each component area within an overall index. Once the criteria were verified and the elicited weights were computed, an opportunity sample of Web-based ISs in the two groups were assessed to ascertain the values for the criteria that comprise the Authentication Method System Index (AMSI). After completion of pre-analysis data screening, the collected data were assessed using the results of the AMSI benchmarking tool. The results of the comparison within and between the two sample groups are presented. This research found that the index derived from these criteria can be used as a mechanism to measure three aspects of the authentication methods used by Web-based systems. However, IS designers, quality assurance teams, and information security practitioners charged with validating ISs methods may choose to use it to measure the effectiveness of such password-based authentication methods. This can enable continuous improvement of authentication methods employed in such Web-based systems. Paper 3. Student Perceptions Of Computer Use Ethics: A Decade In Comparison Michael E. Whitman and Humayun Zafar, Kennesaw State University, Kennesaw GA. Abstract. Researchers have a long history of investigating computer use ethics from a variety of perspectives since the dawn of the age of computing. Some of this research has focused on student attitudes toward software piracy and to what degree students considered copying of commercial software and downloading music to be acceptable actions. This study used an updated series of ethical scenarios from previous works. In addition to standard demographical questions the study included computer use scenarios describing a situation with ethical considerations, and questions which examined the role of the individuals in the scenarios. Responses to the scenarios used a standard five-point, Likert-type scale. Respondents were asked to indicate their academic level and major. Results from the current population of students were compared to the results from prior data collection. While the statistical results of the new study proved only somewhat different than the previous study over a decade ago, the true value of this research is in the provision of a set of scenarios and other perspectives that can be used in in-class discussions of ethics, policy and law. In the book review section, Adolfo Coronado reviews the book "IT Auditing: Using Controls to Protect Information Assets" by Chris Davis, Mike Schiller, and Kevin Wheeler. Adolfo observes that the book "is a good resource and reference tool for individuals in the search to understand the different functions an IT auditor must perform. Overall, the authors put together a book that is easy to follow, understand, and comprehensive." C.Content of Journal of Privacy and Security (JIPS), Vol. 10, Issue 3, 2014. Editorial Content. By the editor, JIPS Paper 1. Social Network Privacy: Trusting Friends Gerald V. Post, Professor of MIS at the Eberhardt School of Business, University of the Pacific, Stockton, CA, USA and Suzanne B. Walchli, Associate Professor of Marketing, Eberhardt School of Business, University of the Pacific, Stockton, CA, USA Abstract. Early social networks were generally open with minimal privacy controls. Some anecdotal evidence suggests that people might want more control over privacy on social networks. As an example of one response to this, Google+ was introduced as a major change by offering circles or groups to make it easier for users to share specific items with selected individuals. This research model uses a social network as a function of privacy concerns and trust in contacts, and tests the model using several groups of people, building on earlier research that focuses primarily on trust in the Web provider. The model examines a personal need or desire for privacy, trust in friends, attitudes towards social networks, and evaluates the impact of these variables on the usage of social networks. The results show that the demand for privacy and trust in friends do have direct impacts on the attitudes towards social networks. And this network attitude does in turn affect the rate of an individual's usage of the networks. The results are applicable to any organization that includes social interactions on its site. Paper 2. Analysis and Estimation of Expected Cyber Attack Scenarios and Consequences Roberto Mugavero, University of Rome "Tor Vergata" Department of Electronic Engineering, Italy and Valentina Sabato, Observatory on Security and CBRNe Defense, Italy Abstract. The cyberspace is becoming one of the main elements of vulnerability and it has led to a critical situation of country security, because our system is always more focused on information sharing and on quick communication all over the world. The cyberspace is, in fact, the "easier vector" of the information environment made of independent networks of different communication and telecommunication infrastructures through which it is possible to perform a wide range of cyber attacks causing possible huge negative effects on systems and assets; however, it does not cause human loss or physical damages to the society. In order to protect ourselves from a danger, it is necessary to understand and analyze how many and which are the risks as well as the possible actions needed to minimize the consequences of a dangerous event. In the Book Review section, Adolfo Coronado reviews a book titled "CCNP security IPS 642-627 official cert guide," by D. Burns, O. Adesina, & K. Barker. Adolfo observes that the book is thorough enough for "individuals preparing for the CCNP security IPS 642-627 certification exam". It is now increasingly felt by many security teachers that for landing a good job in this area, students can increase their chances by qualifying themselves with this kind of certifications. *Faruk Arslan* Department of Accounting and Information Systems | College of Business | The University of Texas at El Paso /Mobile/*:*00 1 915 227 4889| http://business.utep.edu/faculty/profiles/arslan/| www.linkedin.com/pub/faruk-arslan/6/1a1/913 <http://www.linkedin.com/pub/faruk-arslan/6/1a1/913>

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] Community Engagement & Crisis Informatics - CFP Datum: Tue, 2 Sep 2014 19:19:24 +0000 Von: Franco, Zeno <zfranco(a)mcw.edu> An: AISWorld <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> http://iscram2015.org Call for Papers: Community Engagement Conference theme: Getting ready for the unexpected – IS for Crisis Management in a complex and uncertain world Conference Dates: May 24-27 2015 TRACK 9: Community Engagement Download this call for papers:09-ISCRAM2015_Community_Engagement-CfP<http://iscram2015.uia.no/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/09-ISCRAM2015_Community…> Introduction to the track Community Engagement is often an afterthought in crisis planning, recovery efforts, and research and has been repeatedly identified as a failure point in major disasters. Creating effective, enduring research partnerships that bring together information scientists, community engaged researchers, and a wide range of community stakeholders (including, but not limited to, first responder groups) can improve scientific understanding and strengthen community response capacity. New, typically under-evaluated models of decision making and decision support for community crisis management systems are used in large scale interventions. Community Engagement in Research (CEnR) also is complex, resource intensive endeavour that is not as controlled as laboratory based research. This track will engage participants in a discussion of specific CEnR projects geared toward integrating community, informatics, and disaster management as well as the theoretical and practical problems associated with performing research in this space. Special attention will also be paid to citizen observatory and citizen sensor approaches. Track topics * Community/Academic partnerships for disaster planning & response * Crisis information systems design for underserved & marginalized communities * Community centered (as opposed to individual centered) information systems design * Attitudes of practitioners towards using new technologies for crisis management * Working effectively with civil defense & first responder experts and authorities * Integrative crisis management research: engineering – social and computer science – humanities – crisis management practitioners * Citizen observatories & citizen-based remote sensor networks * Mixed methods research approaches for community engaged disaster management Track Chair and Co-Chairs Zeno Franco, PhD* Clinical & Translational Science Institute – Community Engagement Medical College of Wisconsin, USA zfranco(a)mcw.edu<mailto:zfranco@mcw.edu> Christine Adler, Dr, Master of Advanced Studies: Ludwig Maximilians University Dept.
