2nd Workshop on Information Privacy and Security - an ancillary event of ICIS 2013

14th December 2013 in Milan, Italy

DESCRIPTION
Recently, digital platforms have reached a large presence, playing a remarkable role in our daily life and supporting several activities in both private and professional contexts. For instance, social networks are becoming (or are already) a common way for sharing information, interacting with peers, managing events, linking users and objects (i.e. pictures, video, texts, documents, etc.), and so forth. Furthermore, e-services based on meta-search engines, enable users to enter search criteria once and access several services simultaneously (i.e. booking travels, finding the best price of specific goods, etc.) and store data on users preferences.
These digital platforms manage not only personal user information but also all the data generated by the users when they interact through the platform. As a consequence, the platform owner can access a huge and growing amount of information that can be used for improving the provided services and other business purposes. For instance she/he can profile users by analyzing their online behavior and sell these data to a third party. These phenomena leads to a number of issues on how these data should be managed according with privacy and security requirements. The main objective of the workshop is to discuss the multifaceted aspects linked with these issues.
The workshop welcomes contributions aimed at discussing questions such as: who is the owner of user data? To what extent can the platform owner manage user information? What is the value of user information? To whom does this value belong? What kind of technological and/or organizational arrangements can represent a useful solution?

Contributions on information privacy and security not related to the main theme are also welcome.

A special issue of the Journal of Information Privacy and Security (JIPS) will publish updated/revised version of selected papers.
