Workshop Call for Papers
W2SP 2009: Web 2.0 Security and Privacy 2009
Thursday, May 21
The Claremont Resort, Oakland, California

Previous W2SP Workshops: 2008, 2007

The goal of this one day workshop is to bring together researchers and
practitioners from academia and industry to focus on understanding Web 2.0
security and privacy issues, and establishing new collaborations in these
areas.
Web 2.0 is about connecting people and amplifying the power of working
together. Enabled by a wave of new technology, these social and business
interactions rely on composition of content and services from multiple
sources, commonly called mash-ups, leading to systems with complex trust
boundaries. This trend is likely to continue because individuals and
businesses desire the efficiency and simplicity these technologies offer.
Together with their virtues, these technologies raise issues about
management of identities, reputation, privacy, anonymity, transient and
long term relationships, and composition of function and content, both on
the server and on the client (web browser). Although the underlying
security and privacy issues are not new, the use of these technologies on
a wide scale and by a broad audience raises new questions. This workshop
is intended to discuss the limitations of current technologies and explore
alternatives.

The scope of W2SP 2009 includes, but is not limited to:

Trustworthy cloud-based services
Privacy and reputation in social networks
Usable security and privacy
Security for the mobile web
Identity management and psuedonymity
Advertisement and affiliate fraud
Provenance and governance
Security and privacy as a service
Web services/feeds/mashups
Security and privacy policies for composible content
Next-generation browser technology

Potential workshop participants should submit a paper on topics relevant
to Web 2.0 security and privacy issues. We are seeking both short position
papers (2–4 pages) and refereed papers (a maximum of 8 pages). Papers
longer than 8 pages may be automatically rejected by the chair or workshop
committee. From the submissions, the program committee will strive to
balance participation between academia and industry and across topics.
Selected papers will appear on the workshop web site.
