- IS Security and Privacy track
Description
The importance of information
security and privacy in the context of digital work and
digital life is well
documented in the literature. Cybercrimes have been
identified by law
enforcement around the globe as a significant epidemic with
cyber-attacks
causing losses of billions of dollars for organizations and
individuals. The
majority of small to medium size enterprises (SMEs) are
faced with limited
budgets to properly secure their networks, yet significantly
rely on their
information systems to support their financial operations.
At the same time,
the tools, knowledge, and skills for engagement in
cybercrimes appear to be
widely available on the Internet. With significant digital
crimes on the rise,
combined with the ubiquitous use of digital devices, this
track is intended to
be a forum for scholars, practitioners, and doctoral
students interested in
information-, cyber-, and homeland security.
The IS Security and Privacy
track
invites submissions of empirical research articles,
prototype papers, case
studies, position papers, and research-in-progress that
address all interesting
aspects of information and cyber security.
