Cloud computing has recently emerged as a
new information technology infrastructure. In cloud computing,
information is permanently stored in large data centers on the Internet
and temporarily accessed and cached on clients that include desktops
and portable PCs, sensors, etc. With the "cloud" as a metaphor for the
Internet, cloud computing promises to deliver massively scalable
IT-enabled data, software, and hardware capabilities as a service to
external clients using Internet technologies. Cloud computing has been
envisioned as the key technology to achieve economies of scale in the
deployment and operation of IT solutions.
Cloud computing has unique attributes that raise many security and
privacy challenges in areas such as data security, recovery, and
privacy, as well as legal issues in areas such as regulatory compliance
and auditing. In contrast to traditional enterprise IT solutions, where
the IT services are under proper physical, logical and personnel
controls, cloud computing moves the application software and databases
to the servers in large data centers on the Internet, where the
management of the data and services are not fully trustworthy. When
clients store their data on the server without themselves possessing a
copy of it, how the integrity of the data can be ensured if the server
is not fully trustworthy? Will encryption solve the data
confidentiality problem of sensitive data? How will encryption affect
dynamic data operations such as query, insertion, modification, and
deletion? Data in the cloud is typically in a shared environment
alongside data from other clients. How the data segregation should be
done, while data are stored, executed, and transmitted? How the
virtulized resources is being managed and secured in the cloud? Due to
the fundamental paradigm shift in cloud computing, many security
concerns have to be better understood, unanticipated vulnerabilities
identified, and viable solutions to critical threats devised, before
the wide deployment of cloud computing techniques can take place.
Topics of interests include (but are not limited to) the following
subject categories:
- Secure management of virtualized cloud resources
- Secure network architecture for cloud computing
- Joint security and privacy aware cloud protocol design
- Access control and key management
- Trust and policy management in clouds
- Identification and privacy in cloud
- Remote data integrity protection
- Secure computation outsourcing
- Dynamic data operation security
- Software and data segregation security
- Failure detection and prediction
- Secure data management within and across data centers
- Availability, recovery and auditing
- Secure wireless cloud
Authors are invited to submit either Research Papers or Position Papers or both. Position Papers that define new problems in cloud computing security or provide visions and clarifications of cloud computing security are solicited. Regular Research Papers that present novel research results on security and privacy in cloud computing and Short Research Papers that describe work-in-progress ideas are also welcome. Research Papers and Position Papers will be reviewed separately.
