2011-03-31 06:11

Forwarded from: Lionel Garth Jones We are writing to remind you that the submission deadline for the 2nd USENIX Workshop on Health Security and Privacy (HealthSec '11) is quickly approaching. Please submit all work by Tuesday, April 5, 2011, at 11:59 p.m. UTC (7:59 p.m. EDT). http://www.usenix.org/healthsec11/cfpb/ The focus of HealthSec '11 is the exploration of security and privacy issues that arise from the exploding quantity of digital personal health information, in both the provider and the patient settings. The Program Committee strongly encourages cross-disciplinary interactions between fields, including, but not limited to, technology, medicine, and policy. Surprising results and thought-provoking ideas will be strongly favored; complete papers with polished results in well-explored research areas are comparatively discouraged. Position papers that show potential to stimulate or catalyze further research, as well as extended abstracts that explore an issue in depth, are solicited on topics in all areas relating to healthcare information security and privacy, including: * Security and privacy models for healthcare information systems * Industry experience in securing healthcare information systems * Design and deployment of patient-oriented systems for securely accessing and managing personal health data * Security and privacy threats against existing and future medical devices--and countermeasures * Regulatory and policy issues of healthcare information systems * Privacy of medical information * Usability issues, especially combined with security constraints * Threat models for healthcare information systems In addition to the refereed papers, the technical program will include invited talks and panel discussions. You are invited to make suggestions regarding topics or speakers in any of these sessions via email to the program chairs at healthsec11chairs () usenix org For submission guidelines and more information, please see the complete Call for Papers at http://www.usenix.org/healthsec11/cfpb/ HealthSec '11 will be co-located with the 20th USENIX Security Symposium (USENIX Security '11), which will take place August 10-12, 2011. We look forward to receiving your submissions!
