Information Security Theory and Practice: 10th IFIP WG 11.2 International Conference, WISTP 2016, Heraklion, Crete, Greece, September 26–27, 2016, Proceedings

Description

The widespread and fast development of ICT is changing the information society in which we live as well as our interactions with the surrounding environment and among each other. This evolution of ICT is bringing unprecedented advantages, but its success will depend on how secure ICT systems are and on the security and privacy guarantees that these systems offer. These proceedings contain the papers selected for presentation at the 10th WISTP International Conference on Information Security Theory and Practice (WISTP 2016), held in Heraklion, Crete, Greece, on September 26-27, 2016, in conjunction with the 21st European Symposium On Research In Computer Security (ESORICS 2016). In response to the call for papers, 29 papers were submitted to the conference from 14 different countries. Each paper was reviewed by at least three members of the Program Committee, and evaluated on the basis of its significance, novelty, and technical quality. As in previous years, reviewing was “double-blind”, that is, the identities of the authors were not revealed to the reviewers of the papers and the identities of the reviewers were not revealed to the authors. The Program Committee’s work was carried out electronically, yielding intensive discussions. Of the submitted papers, the Program Committee accepted 13 full papers (resulting in an acceptance rate of 44.8 %) and 5 short papers for presentation at the conference.
