Smart cards or IC cards offer a huge potential for information processing purposes. The portability and processing power of IC cards allow for highly secure conditional access and reliable distributed information processing. IC cards that can perform highly sophisticated cryptographic computations are already available. Their application in the financial services and telecom industries are well known. But the potential of IC cards go well beyond that. Their applicability in mainstream Information Technology and the Networked Economy is limited mainly by our imagination; the information...

Smart cards are an established security research area with a very unique pr- erty: it integrates numerous sub?elds of IT Security, which often appear sc- tered and only loosely connected. Smart card research unites them by providing a common goal: advancing the state of the art of designing and deploying small tokens to increase the security in Information Technology. CARDIS has a tradition of more than one decade, and has established itself asthepremier conferencefor researchresultsinsmartcardtechnology.As smart card research is unique, so is CARDIS; the conference successfully attracts a-...

Privacy in statistical databases is a discipline whose purpose is to provide - lutions to the con?ict between the increasing social, political and economical demand of accurate information, and the legal and ethical obligation to protect the privacy of the individuals and enterprises to which statistical data refer. - yond law and ethics, there are also practical reasons for statistical agencies and data collectors to invest in this topic: if individual and corporate respondents feel their privacyguaranteed, they arelikelyto providemoreaccurateresponses.

A reference to answer all your statistical confidentiality questions. This handbook provides technical guidance on statistical disclosure control and on how to approach the problem of balancing the need to provide users with statistical outputs and the need to protect the confidentiality of respondents.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the International Conference on Privacy in Statistical Databases, PSD 2014, held in Ibiza, Spain in September 2014 under the sponsorship of the UNESCO chair in Data Privacy. The 27 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 41 submissions. The scope of the conference is on following topics: tabular data protection, microdata masking, protection using privacy models, synthetic data, record linkage, remote access, privacy-preserving protocols, and case studies.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the International Conference on Privacy in Statistical Databases, PSD 2016, held in Dubrovnik, Croatia in September 2016 under the sponsorship of the UNESCO chair in Data Privacy.
The 19 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 35 submissions. The scope of the conference is on following topics: tabular data protection; microdata and big data masking; protection using privacy models; synthetic data; remote and cloud access; disclosure risk assessment; co-utile anonymization.

This book explores the theoretical foundations of co-utility as well as its application to a number of areas, including distributed reputation management, anonymous keyword search, collaborative data anonymization, digital oblivion, peer-to-peer (P2P) content distribution, ridesharing for sustainable mobility, environmental economy, business model design and the collaborative economy. It evolved from presentations at the 1st Co-Utility Workshop, "held in Tarragona, Spain, on March 10-11, 2016."
How can we guarantee that a global society without a common legal framework operates smoothly?...
