COVID-19
========

After assessment of the COVID-19 Pandemic, the ESORICS 2020 Organizing
Committee has made the decision to move the conference and all
associated workshops to an online format. Arrangements for the virtual
format are being made and we will post updates as they are announced.
This new format will not affect our proceedings, which will be
published as Springer LNCS proceedings.

SCOPE
======

DPM is an annual international workshop covering research in data
privacy management. Organizations are increasingly concerned
about the privacy of information that they manage (as witnessed,
for example, by lawsuits filed against organizations for
violating the privacy of customer’s data). Thus, the management
of privacy-sensitive information is very critical and important
for every organization.

This poses several challenging problems, such as how to translate the
high-level business goals into system-level privacy policies,
administration of privacy-sensitive data, privacy preserving data
integration and engineering, privacy preserving access control
mechanisms, information-oriented security, and query execution on
privacy-sensitive data for partial answers. Starting from these
observations, the aim of DPM is to discuss and exchange ideas related
to data privacy management. We invite papers from researchers and
practitioners working in privacy, security, trustworthy data systems
and related areas to submit their original papers in this workshop.
Submissions by PhD students as well as controversial ideas are
encouraged. Case studies (successful or not) are also encouraged.

========

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

– Privacy Information Management
– Privacy Policy-based Infrastructures and Architectures

PAPER SUBMISSIONS
===================

Submitted papers must not substantially overlap papers that have been
published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a
conference with proceedings. Papers can be submitted as Full Papers or
Short Papers. Full papers should be at most 16 pages in the LNCS
format, including the bibliography and well-marked appendices. Short
papers should be at most 8 pages in the LNCS format, including the
bibliography and well-marked appendices. Program Committee members are
not required to read the appendices, so papers should be intelligible
without them.

Authors should indicate whether their paper is a short paper to
differentiate them from full papers. All submissions must be written
in English. It is planned to have accepted papers published by
Springer in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series, the
LNCS template can be found at
http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs/lncs+authors.

Authors must submit their papers by the indicated deadline, using the
EasyChair web site (at
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=dpm2020). Only PDF files will
be accepted (a Latex source file will be required for the final
version of the accepted papers). All papers will be refereed. Accepted
papers must be presented at the Workshop. At least one author of each
accepted paper must register to the workshop, by the early date
indicated by the organizers, and present the paper.
