3rd VLDB Workshop on Secure Data Management
- with special session on security and privacy in healthcare -
http://www.hitech-projects.com/sdm-workshop/

September 10-11, 2006
The Convention and Exhibition Center (COEX)
Seoul, Korea
In conjunction with 32nd International Conference on Very Large Databases
http://aitrc.kaist.ac.kr/~vldb06/

The 3rd SDM workshop builds upon the success of the first two workshops,
which was organized in conjunction with VLDB 2004 in Toronto, Canada and
VLDB 2005 in Trondheim, Norway.


Motivation
Although cryptography and security techniques have been around for quite
some time, emerging technologies such as ubiquitous computing and ambient
intelligence that exploit increasingly interconnected networks, mobility
and personalization, put new requirements on security with respect to
data management. As data is accessible anytime anywhere, according to
these new concepts, it becomes much easier to get unauthorized data
access. Furthermore, it becomes simpler to collect, store, and search
personal information and endanger people's privacy. Therefore, research
in the area of secure data management is of growing importance,
attracting attention of both the data management and security research
communities The interesting problems range from traditional ones
such as, access control (with all variations, like dynamic,
context-aware, role-based), database security (e.g. efficient database
encryption schemes, search over encrypted data, etc.), privacy
preserving data mining to controlled sharing of data.

This year, we will continue with a tradition to have a special session
devoted to secure data management in healthcare. Data security and
privacy issue are traditionally important in the medical domain.
However, recent developments and increasing deployment of IT in
healthcare such as the introduction of electronic health records
and extramural applications in the personal health care domain,
pose new challenges towards the protection of medical data. In contrast
to other domains, such as financial, which can absorb the cost of the
abuse of the system, healthcare cannot. Once sensitive information about
individual's health problems is uncovered and social damage is done,
there is no way to revoke the information or to restitute the individual.
In addition to this, the medical field has some other specific
characteristics, such as long-term value of medical data and
flexibility with respect to, on one hand confidentiality, and
on the other hand availability of medical data in the case of emergency.


Aim
The aim of the workshop is to bring together people from the security
research community and data management research community in order to
exchange ideas on the secure management of data. This year an additional
special session will be organized with the focus on secure and private
data management in healthcare. The workshop will provide forum for
discussing practical experiences and theoretical research efforts that
can help in solving the critical problems in secure data management.
Authors from both academia and industry are invited to submit papers
presenting novel research on the topics of interest (see below).
