WEARABLE-S&P 2015 : 1st Workshop on Wearable Security and Privacy

The 1st Workshop on Wearable Security and Privacy will be held January 30, 2015 at the InterContinental San Juan Hotel in Isla Verde, Puerto Rico, in association with Financial Crypto 2015. This workshop focuses on the unique challenges of security and privacy for wearable devices.  http://sensible.berkeley.edu/WEARABLE-S&P15/ <br> <br>The demand for a variety of technologies in wearable devices has increased in recent years. Products ranging from Google glass, to EEG brainwave signal readers, to heart rate monitors, have opened up many new applications, but also give rise to concerns involving security and privacy. This workshop seeks papers addressing the unique challenges of security and privacy for wearable computing devices. Suggested topics include (but are not limited to) empirical and theoretical studies of: <br> <br>- Novel biometrics <br>- Behavioral biometrics <br>- Multi-factor authentication with wearable sensors <br>- Usability of wearable authentication <br>- Robustn...

Submissions must not substantially overlap with works that have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a conference with proceedings. Submissions should follow the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science format. Regular submissions should be no more than 15 pages including references and well-marked appendices. Shorter submissions of up to 6 pages may also be submitted as short papers. Accepted papers will appear in the proceedings published by Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science. Authors who seek to submit their works to journals may opt-out by publishing an extended abstract only. <br> <br> <br>Program Committee <br> <br>Alessandro Acquisti, CMU <br>Srdjan Capkun, ETH Zurich <br>John Chuang, UC Berkeley (co-chair) <br>Cory Cornelius, Intel Labs <br>Yves-Alexandre de Montjoye, MIT <br>Benjamin Johnson, CMU (co-chair) <br>Jaeyeon Jung, Microsoft Research <br>Apu Kapadia, Indiana University Bloomington <br>Krishna Ksheerabdhi, Gemalto <br>Ivan Martinovic, University of Oxford <br>Tara Mathews, Google <br>Franziska Roesner, University of Washington
