The best proposals in different topic areas will be accepted for presentation and publication.

In an effort to provide a diverse selection of tutorials, only one proposal per topic area will be accepted. Therefore, if two or more submitted proposals cover the same topic or significantly overlap, only the best proposal will be selected at the discretion of the evaluation committee.

Tutorials Supporting Text

The author(s) of accepted tutorials proposals must produce a supporting text for the course between 40 to 50 pages in length. The supporting text must be written in Portuguese; other languages will not be accepted. The supporting text for each selected tutorials will be published as a chapter in the symposium’s catalog “Tutorials of SBSeg 2014”. Tutorials authors are expected to format the supporting text based on SBC’s formatting guidelines.

Important Dates and Deadlines

• Acceptance Notification: October 1, 2014
• Final Version Deadline: to be determined
• Workshop Date: November 6, 2014

Call for Submission

The Brazilian Symposium on Information and Computational Security Systems (SBSeg) opened its doors to the interdisciplinary field of Computational Forensics in 2012 and the annual Workshop on Computational Forensics is convening for the third time! The past workshops in 2012 (Curitiba, PR) and in 2013 (Manaus, AM) were a success thanks to the speakers, technical sessions, and submitted articles.

The upcoming WFC III in Belo Horizonte will focus on improving the training and motivation within the computational forensics community. This theme is a result of a last year’s workshop report which highlighted the lack of computational forensics experts and its effect in the legal arena, especially as the “TJMG admits that there are large number of stalled legal processes” in part to the lack of experts.

The WFC III will not resolve all of the issues, but will encourage discussion on the problems and possible technical and scientific solutions that can assist experts in their everyday activities. It is important to note, that the Public Ministry of Minas Gerais created the State Coordinator for Combating Cyber Crime (Coeciber). This office is part of the Center for Operational Support for Criminal Prosecutors, for prosecutors working in Criminal Enforcement, Juried Trial, and under Military Authority (Caocrim). The State Coordinator for Combating Cyber Crime (Coeciber) works, in conjunction with public prosecutors, to expand and reform judicial and extrajudicial measures necessary to effectively combat cyber crime under state jurisdiction.

Moreover, another important issue to review is the current labor demand for specialized experts, as the Institute for General Skills (IGP) reported that “investigation for both common and technologically sophisticated crimes require specialized expertise.”

The WFC III facilitates knowledge transfer and best practice exchange between experts in the Computer Science and Law fields. By bringing together technical experts working in the computer forensics realm with those in relevant legal fields, important legal aspects affecting legislation arising from unlawful acts can be appropriately dealt with while minimizing implications on Brazilian society.

The computational forensics field is continuously growing more important and necessary as the virtual online environment continuously becomes part of everyday society and societal interactions. This transformation in societal interaction is facilitating the movement of traditional societal problems, once common in the real world, into the virtual world. With this movement, new technical and legal problems are emerging, including issues related to: invasion of privacy; breaches of contracts made over the internet; dissemination of slanderous or defamatory e-mails; child pornography; cyber bullying; illegal copy right infringement of software, music, and movies; and many more issues becoming an everyday reality in Brazilian and worldwide society.

 

Given the context and state of affairs, the SBSeg organizing committee invites potential workshop participants to submit papers related to the topics listed below. The workshop organizing committee recognizes that the items below are not a complete list and encourages individuals interested in submitting papers in relevant fields not list below to contact the workshop coordinators for consultation.

Presentation

Management of digital identities (IdM-Identity Management) consists of an integrated system of policies, processes, and technologies that enable organizations to treat and manipulate the identities of its users and objects (devices) in authentication, authorization, accounting, and auditing.

This is an active research topic and due to its complexity and relevance it is expected to remain important for some time. This outlook stems from the numerous technical issues that identity management systems must consider, such as: ease of use, user privacy and anonymity, security, single authentication, scalability, fine granularity access control (based on attributes), interoperability, and systems costs (total cost of ownership).

The 4th Workshop on Digital Identity Management (WGID) will provide a forum for technical paper discussions and presentations on the state of the art technologies related to identity management. Furthermore, a workshop goal is to identify research challenges as well as empower workshop participants.

Call for Papers

Brazil has been increasingly adopting automation of its elections since the deployment of voting machines in 1996, reaching the current scenario where integration with biometric identification is planned for all voting equipment. However, participation of academia in this initiative, in particular of the information security segment, has been not expressive.

The Workshop on Electoral Technology is a scientific venue organized as a satellite event of the XIV Brazilian Symposium on Security of Information and Computer Systems (SBSeg 2014). The main objective of the event is to promote research in electoral technology and to establish collaboration with the international research community, integrating experts in academia and industry with interest on the security of electronic voting. In this context, papers are solicited for submission in any work aligned with the main goal, with emphasis on the following items:

• Auditing of electronic voting systems
• Cryptographic protocols and primitives for electronic voting
• Design of new voting systems
• Experiences with systems in production or development
• Formal or informal security or requirements analysis
• Legal aspects and standardization in electronic voting
• Mechanisms for protecting ballot secrecy and integrity
• Mechanisms for verifying election results
• Security analysis and attacks on existing systems
• Security of paper and remote voting
• Usability and accessibility issues
• Voter registration and authentication

Important Dates

• Registration and Submission: September 8, 2014
• Notification of Decision: September 19, 2014
• Final Version: September 29, 2014
