EdgeSP: The Third ACM/IEEE Workshop on
Security and Privacy in Edge Computing



Call for Papers

As the technologies of edge computing continue to advance, new security and privacy challenges and opportunities emerge, leading to the flourishing research on and fast development of various security solutions. The aim of this workshop is to provide a platform for researchers and practitioners to present advances in security and privacy enhancing technologies in the emerging field of edge computing. The workshop will be co-located with the Fifth ACM/IEEE Symposium on Edge Computing (SEC), November 13, 2020, in San Jose, CA, USA.


We invite authors to submit previously unpublished papers offering novel research contributions addressing security and privacy issues in edge computing. Topics include, but are not limited to:

  • Anonymity
  • Attacks and defences
  • Authentication
  • Side-channel attacks and defences for edge computing
  • Intrusion detection and prevention
  • Key Management for ddge computing
  • Mobile and Web security and privacy
  • IoT security and privacy on edge computing
  • Network and systems security
  • Privacy technologies and mechanisms
  • Protocol security
  • Secure information flow
  • Security and privacy metrics
  • Security and privacy policies
