http://liss.whu.edu.cn/mines2009/SECMCS.htm
To be held in conjunction with the 2009 International Conference on
Multimedia Information Networking and Security (MINES 2009), on November 18–20,
2009, in Wuhan, China. http://liss.whu.edu.cn/mines2009/
The previous event: 2008 International Workshop on Multimedia Security in Communication
(MUSIC'08) http://www.music-com.org/
Introduction
The rapid
development of communication techniques allows us to transmit more than
text/binary data in real time. While multimedia (image, video, audio, etc.)
enriches human's daily life, its prosperity also attract malicious attackers
and abusers with different motivations, such as political reasons, illegal
financial benefits, or simply to win a prestige reputation in a hacker
community. Nowadays, multimedia communication plays an important role in
multiple areas in human society including entertainment, politics, economics,
militaries, industries, etc. It is urgent to secure multimedia data by
providing confidentiality, integrity, and ownership or identity. In the past
decade, multimedia security has been a hot topic in the security research community.
Various solutions have been reported, which address problems including data
encryption, multimedia authentication, digital rights management (DRM), etc.
However, due to some characteristics of multimedia
content, such as large data volumes, interactive operations, and requires
real-time responses, the problems multimedia security need to address are
different from text/binary data security. Furthermore, multimedia security is
highly services-dependable. Different services require different methods for
content transmission or distribution, paying, interaction, etc. Particularly,
new services have been emerging and new techniques are appearing, such as
mobile TV, IPTV, IMS, VoIP, P2P living or download, convergence of mobile and
Internet, etc. For instance, in mobile TV, the terminal's power should be
considered when designing security functions; in P2P living, the requirement in
a distributed architecture is different from the server-client mode. Additionally,
multimedia content filtering should be considered to clean up the service
system. Under the environment of network convergence, the smart means adaptive
to different networks are expected. This workshop aims to bring together
research work in the area of secure multimedia communication, investigate the
novel solutions for secure multimedia services, and discuss the future trends
for multimedia security in new services.
Topics
This
workshop covers various aspects of secure multimedia communication in emerging
services. The services may work in the following environment: Internet, mobile
TV, IPTV, IMS, VoIP, P2P, sensor network, network convergence, etc. The paper
may focus on architecture construction, algorithm designing or hardware
implementation. Both review paper and technical paper are expected. The topics
include but are not limited to:
²
Lightweight multimedia encryption
²
Secure multimedia adaptation
²
Multimedia content authentication
²
Sensitive content
detection/filtering based on multimedia analysis
²
Security threats or model for
multimedia services
²
Conditional Access and Digital
Rights Management
