Track: Information Security and Privacy (SIGSEC) Minitrack: Moving Beyond Traditional Constructs in Information Security Research Employees are organizations' core assets that interact with Information Systems (IS) in order to perform their tasks; however numerous studies have reported that employees noncompliance of IS security policies is the main cause of security breaches within organizations. Over the last decade, the IS research community has contributed substantial research in order to understand the causes underlying IS security noncompliance. Most of this research draws upon the General Deterrence Theory and Theory of Planned Behavior theory to explain the behavior that motivates IS security compliance. Even though the existing research has significantly contributed to the understanding of the phenomenon of IS security noncompliance, several studies have reported non-convergent findings. The purpose of this mini-track is to provide a forum to present and discuss theoretical models, methodologies, and empirical cases concerning employees' behaviors and noncompliance with IS security policies. This mini-track aims to investigate new theories and constructs that have not been explored in IS security compliance literature. Therefore, we invite innovative papers that explore new constructs and theories that address a variety of issues pertaining employees' behaviors towards IS security in organizations. The goal is to advance our understanding of the IS security noncompliance phenomenon. Cross-cultural studies or comparative studies highlighting differences and similarities regarding employees' behaviors with IS security in emerging and developing countries are also welcome. Papers must be submitted through the conference website: https://amcis2020.aisconferences.org/ For details on submission instructions, deadlines, and template, please click here: https://amcis2020.aisconferences.org/submissions/types-of-submissions/ Important dates: - January 06, 2020: System opens for general paper submissions - February 28, 2020: Deadline for paper submissions.

DHAASS, which will be held July 8-9, 2020, aims to bring together leading researchers, community leaders and visionaries from academia and industry, end-users, and healthcare professionals, in the area of digital health to share their research, practical experience, and visions of the future of sustainable health and social care transformations. About DHAASS Looking at the health and integrated care system through services’ spectacles reveal significant opportunities for engaging digital health to affect an ecosystem shift in which a new health delivery model is unleashed. Engaging multiple and new roles, including communities and individual patients in their own integrated healthcare services delivery is one of the promising opportunities which can be made possible by the microservices structuring of the health and care system . Broadly speaking, related discovery, composition and provision of healthcare services will need to be based on cutting-edge computer technologies and digital media/data so that quality factors including timing, granularity, scale, cost-effectiveness, safety, security, privacy, and precision are integral parts of the healthcare value chain ecosystem. Digital Health services can include, among many other innovative methods, preventive and predictive capabilities of machine learning based data analytics, actionable recommendations based on in-situ monitoring and assessment of an individual’s real-time physical and cognitive performance, trade-off analysis between cloud-based versus edge-based sensory data streaming and data analytics. Scope DHAASS will embrace a broad spectrum of issues and concerns, including, but not limited to, the following topics related to digital health as services: • Microservices models and architectures of health and integrated care services • Disease/condition-specific provider microservice design (e.g., diabetes, obesity, COPD, dementia, post cancer treatment, allergies, Ear, Nose and Throat Conditions (ENT)) • Patient/user-side microservices design (user needs, social isolation, assistive living for older adults and individuals with special needs, emergencies) • Standardizing provider-side and user-side microservices. FHIR resources, profiles and extension for digital health as a service • Microservices-based delivery pathways co-design and provider acceptability • Informatic, cybernetic and mediatic digital health platforms supportive of implementing microservices architecture • Community crowd-sourcing for delivery of health and care microservices • Microservices crowd-sourcing platforms • Worker training and selection, reputation management, and micropayments • Mediation technology for peer group support (peer-sourcing) • Qualifying and activating user-side microservice requests: eligibility, fairness, properness, among other qualifications including irrational service user models (e.g., a dementia patient requesting the microservice repeatedly and forgetfully) • mHealth services and applications which include the use of mobile devices o in collecting community and clinical health data, delivery of healthcare information to practitioners, researchers and patients, • for real-time monitoring of patient vital signs and the direct provision of care (via mobile telemedicine) • for training and collaboration of health workers. • Health economics of microservices-oriented care delivery systems o Scalability issues for adopting digital health as services • Empirical study on savings in unit and total cost realized by patient and community engagement Submissions Submitted papers must be solely the work of the author(s), must not have been previously published elsewhere, and must not be under consideration for publication elsewhere.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] IS for Good Minitrack AMCIS 2020 CFP Date: Sat, 4 Jan 2020 11:34:42 +0000 From: George, Jordana Jeanne <jgeorge(a)mays.tamu.edu> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Using IS for Good Minitrack for AMCIS 2020 Track: Social Inclusion and Socio-Technical Issues August 12-16, Salt Lake City, Utah, United States Information systems (IS) have the potential to improve social welfare through redistribution of power, providing a voice for marginalized people, improving access to education, and increasing economic opportunity (George & Leidner, 2019; Lin, et al., 2015; Ortiz et al., 2019; Silva & Hirschheim, 2007; Vaidya & Myers, 2017). Some development programs that sought to use IS for a good cause have been highly successful, but many other projects, even those well designed and well-funded, have never gotten off the ground (Chipidza & Leidner, 2019). This track is dedicated to research on how IS has been used for good, how and when it is successful, and how and when it tends to fail. The contribution of the track is the development of theory and methods for improving the outcomes when IS is used for Good. What we are looking for We welcome papers that theoretically, conceptually, or empirically advance research on the impact of IS on society when IS and ICTs specifically target the improvement of social welfare. Papers may use any acceptable methodology and theory. Submissions are encouraged at any level of analysis or progress. Both full papers and emerging research are encouraged so that authors can gain valuable feedback for moving their projects forward. Possible topics may include (but are not limited to): · The role of Fintech in economic development · Projects or systems focused on the digital divide · Social connections of geographically distant groups with a common cause · Digital strategies to fight disenfranchisement and marginalization · Corporate social responsibility success and failure · Digital activism that advances human rights · Information systems that focus on financial inclusion · The impact of digital saviors (those who think they know best and impose systems on a community for their own good) Minitrack Co-Chairs Jordana George (Primary Contact), Mays Business School, Texas A&M University, jgeorge(a)mays.tamu.edu Wallace Chipidza, Claremont Graduate University David Gomillion, Mays Business School, Texas A&M University Dwayne Whitten, Mays Business School, Texas A&M University Co-Chair Biographies Jordana George is a Clinical Assistant Professor at the Mays Business School at Texas A&M University.

Tutorials run in parallel with other conference tracks, and participation is included in the attendees’ conference fee. We invite proposals for tutorials that may address one or more of the listed topics below, although authors should not feel limited by them. Tutorial proposals are limited to 5 pages in Springer LNCS/LNBIP format (https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-gu… ). Proposals must be submitted using the conference submission site (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=rcis2020 ), where you choose "RCIS2020 Tutorials". Instructions on the structure of a tutorial proposal can be found online: http://www.rcis-conf.com/rcis2020/tutorials.php . Tutorial Chairs • Estefania Serral Asensio, KU Leuven, Belgium • Ignacio Panach, University of Valencia, Spain DOCTORAL CONSORTIUM The RCIS 2020 Doctoral Consortium is an opportunity for doctoral students to present, discuss and develop their research project in an interdisciplinary workshop, under the guidance of a panel of senior researchers. The Doctoral Consortium offers nice opportunities for PhD students. Firstly, the feedback received during the Doctoral Consortium will really benefit students who have defined their topic, research plan and have obtained early results, but who still have room for improving their longer-term plan. Secondly, students at all stages of their doctoral project can meet the welcoming RCIS community and widen their network of contacts. The Doctoral Consortium has the following objectives: • Provide a platform for students to present their work and to meet other peers and be familiar with different research topics and methods. • Provide feedback on students' current research and guidance on future research directions. • Promote the development of a supportive community of scholars and a spirit of collaborative research and networking. • Contribute to the conference goals through interaction with other researchers. Interested PhD students are invited to submit papers, in agreement with their supervisors, addressing the instructions that are provided on the online call: http://www.rcis-conf.com/rcis2020/callDoctoral.php . Papers shall be formatted according to the Springer LNCS/LNBIP conference proceedings template (for LaTeX and Word): https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-gu… . Submissions must be written in English, and must be authored by the student only. The maximum length of the paper should be eight (8) pages, including references, appendices, etc. The submission site address is https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=rcis2020 where you can choose "RCIS2020 Doctoral Consortium". Doctoral Consortium Chairs • Raian Ali, Bournemouth University, United Kingdom • Sergio España, Utrecht University, Netherlands POSTERS AND DEMOS The posters & demos track will showcase prototypes and new research ideas in Information Science. This track provides a forum for researchers and practitioners to present their work, interact with conference participants, and obtain feedback on on-going research. We invite two types of submissions: • Posters are intended to convey a research result and are not advertisements for commercial software packages. While posters need not describe completed work, they should report on research for which at least some preliminary results are available. • Demonstrations should directly and actively involve the exhibition and display of tools/prototypes and associated materials that illustrate research work in progress and serve as ground for discussion of research ideas. Posters and demonstrations proposals must be submitted as a single PDF file with no more than 6 pages in Springer LNCS/LNBIP format (https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-gu… ) including references and appendices. Proposals that exceed the limit of 6 pages will be rejected without review. Proposals that have already been accepted or are currently under review for other conferences or journals will not be considered for publication at RCIS 2020. The submission site address is https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=rcis2020 where you can choose "RCIS2020 Posters & Demos".

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] AMCIS 2020 CFP: Cyber Crime, Cyber Terrorism, and Hacker Culture Minitrack Date: Sat, 4 Jan 2020 01:40:01 +0000 From: Miloslava Plachkinova <MPLACHKINOVA(a)ut.edu> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> CC: Maurer, Chris (csm9y) <csm9y(a)comm.virginia.edu> Dear colleagues, We invite you to submit your manuscripts to the Cyber Crime, Cyber Terrorism, and Hacker Culture minitrack under the Information Security and Privacy (SIGSEC) track at AMCIS 2020. The conference will take place in Salt Lake City, UT, from August 12 to 16. Please see below the description of the minitrack. The deadline for submissions is February 28. The growing number of terrorist incidents over the past few decades have resulted in a great deal of interest in how to act against acts of terrorism within our cyber space. As our society continues to increase its dependence on technology, the threat posed to nations from terrorists is no longer just physical but also expands to our digital world. This minitrack aims to shed more light on the issue of cyber crime and cyber terrorism by also exploring hacker culture and the motivations of attackers. Some possible topics to consider would be: – Dimensions of cyber crime – Motivation and organization of hackers/hacking groups – Policy implications of cyber terrorism and cyber crime – Prevention of cyber crime and cyber terrorism – The risks posed by IoT and SCADA – International approaches to fighting cyber crime and cyber terrorism – Developing theory and constructs to better understand cyber crime To access the submission system, click here: https://new.precisionconference.com/ais Minitrack chairs: Miloslava Plachkinova, University of Tampa Chris Maurer, University of Virginia If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact us.
