In today’s digital age, we use IT in almost all
areas of our lives: Social media to connect with family and
friends; mobile apps for banking or shopping; cloud services
to store and flexibly access huge amounts of media,
pictures, and videos. So everyday, we leave millions of data
traces, and the scale of user data available online
is unprecedented. At the same time, recent data scandals
showed how lax current privacy protections for user data are.
Likewise, the number of cyber-attacks in industry is
growing. Organizations’ assets and critical
resources increasingly become digital and thus more
transferrable. It is therefore important to protect digital
resources in organizations and reduce exposure to inadvertent
modifications or information leakage. As a consequence,
urgent public discussions at all levels raise concerns
about information security and privacy.
This track seeks contributions that address these rising
concerns. We especially encourage research that focuses on the
management of information security and privacy across a
variety of industries, such as, health, insurance, finance,
mobility. All methodological approaches are welcome, including
but not limited to conceptual, qualitative, quantitative,
design science including engineering of novel protection
mechanisms, and mixed-methods approaches.

•
Security and Privacy Threats and Challenges
