As the proliferation of digital devices and services risks to outpace our ability to protect our goods from attackers, Chip-to-Cloud Security Forum provides an independent conference platform dedicated to advance end-to-end digital security. Created in 2011 from the former e-Smart and Smart Mobility conferences, the conference covers all technical aspects of all assets protection of embedded, mobile, M2M and Cloud services and ecosystems. Its scope ranges from the foundations such as cryptography, hardware security mechanisms and embedded software security technologies, including end user verification by biometry, to the latest developments of security services delivered through the Cloud.
Part of “World Smart Week”, Chip-to-Cloud Security Forum operates as the technical and forward thinking conference, at the root of the three business-oriented conferences held in parallel: NFC World Congress, World e-ID Congress and M2M Innovation World Congress. Chip to Cloud Security Forum’s agenda features joint sessions on common security issues addressed by these co-located conferences. The four conferences altogether form the World Smart Week. Last year, World Smart Week gathered 1375 high level participants sharing a common objective: bringing an "easier trusted mobile life" for the consumers and citizens. This purpose remains highly topical in 2014.
There is no such thing as perfect security. This could sound disparaging but seasoned security experts are well aware of this. Addressing this gap requires the best people, technology, and methodologies to make threat intelligence possible. It also requires collaboration and expertise sharing across the Industry. Chip to Cloud Security Forum offers such an opportunity for researchers from Academia and information security professionals from Industry R&D, government, standardization bodies.
The speakers will benefit from a highly qualified audience as well as extensive knowledge sharing and networking opportunities with the other delegates attending the contactless, e-ID and M2M conferences.
The Chip-to-Cloud Security Forum Program Committee is looking for technical papers describing original ideas, groundbreaking results, new techniques, new methodologies, new research directions, for resolving open problems spanning all aspects of security of embedded, mobile, M2M and Cloud services and ecosystems.
The submissions may address one or more of the topics mentioned below or others that authors believe to be of great interest to the audience.
