SpaIoT2015

The 8th IEEE International Symposium on Security, Privacy and Anonymity in Internet of Things
held in conjunction with IEEE TrustCom-15

August 20-22, 2015, Helsinki, Finland


With the extensive research and development of computer, communication and control technologies, it is possible to connect all things to the Internet such that the so-called Internet of Things (IoT) can be formed. These things may be equipped with devices such as sensors, actuators, and RFID tags, in order to allow people and things to be connected anytime and anywhere, with anything and anyone. IoT will enable collaborations and communications among people and things, and among things themselves, which expand the current Internet and will radically change our personal, corporate, and community environments. When more and more things connect to the Internet, security and privacy issues become more serious, especially in the case that these things are equipped with actuators and can support control.


For better protection of secure communication and user privacy, including location, identity and behavior habits, it is necessary to develop anonymous communication theories, methods and key technologies of anonymous communication systems in all varieties of application environments. Anonymous communication is used to hide communication participants or communication relations so as to achieve effective protection for network nodes and user identities. Anonymous communication can address potential network security issues, and becomes one of the hot topics in the field of network and information security.


Scope and Interests
SpaIoT 2015 aims at providing a forum for discussing the latest academic and industrial research results in all aspects of security and privacy in IoT. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

  • Security, privacy architectures for IoT
  • Security, privacy platforms for IoT
  • Security, privacy applications for IoT
  • Architecture for anonymous communication system
  • Resilience to external and internal attacks in IoT
  • Anonymity measures and evaluation
  • Anonymous communication in IoT
  • Anonymous communication & privacy protection
  • Anonymous browsing system

Submission and Publication Information

Papers submitted to the symposium should be written in English conforming to the IEEE Conference Proceedings Format (8.5" x 11", Two-Column). The paper should be submitted through the symposium submission system at the symposium website. The length of the papers should not exceed 6 pages + 2 pages for over length charges.


Accepted and presented papers will be included into the IEEE Conference Proceedings published by IEEE CS CPS and submitted to IEEE Xplore and CSDL. Authors of accepted papers, or at least one of them, are requested to register and present their work at the conference, otherwise their papers will be removed from the digital libraries of IEEE CS after the conference. Distinguished papers presented at the conference, after further revision, will be recommended to special issues of reputable SCI/EI-indexed journals.


Submitting a paper to the symposium means that, if the paper is accepted, at least one author should attend the symposium and present the paper.
