Call for Paper
http://nsclab.org/socialsec2019/Social Networks and Big Data have pervaded all aspects of our daily
lives. With their unparalleled popularity, social networks have
evolved from the platforms for social communication and news
dissemination, to indispensable tools for professional networking,
social recommendations, marketing, and online content distribution.
Social Networks, together with other activities, produce Big Data that
is beyond the ability of commonly used computer software and hardware
tools to capture, manage, and process within a tolerable elapsed time.
It has been widely recognised that security and privacy are the
critical challenges for Social Networks and Big Data applications due
to their scale, complexity and heterogeneity.
The 5th International Symposium on Security and Privacy in Social
Networks and Big Data (
SocialSec 2019) will be held at Technical
University of Denmark in Copenhagen, Denmark on 14-17 July
2019. It
follows the success of
SocialSec 2015 in Hangzhou, China,
SocialSec2016 in Fiji,
SocialSec 2017 in Melbourne, Australia and
SocialSec2018 in Santa Clara, CA, USA. The aim of the symposium is to provide a
leading edge forum to foster interactions between researchers and
developers with the security and privacy communities in Social
Networks and Big Data, and to give attendees an opportunity to
interact with experts in academia, industry, and governments.
