ICDE Workshop on Secure Data Management on Smart Phones and
Mobile Devices (SDMSM)
http://dig.csail.mit.edu/2012/ICDE-SDMSM/
28th IEEE International Conference on Data Engineering (ICDE),
Washington DC
April 1-5, 2012.

The widespread adoption of smart phones within the enterprise in
the recent past raises serious data management challenges around
data privacy and security of personal and enterprise
data. Enterprises need assurance that they are still in control
of their sensitive data on mobile devices in the wild, and no
data leakage or unauthorized modifications to the data can happen
through these devices. Most users run both enterprise as well as
personal apps on the same device simultaneously and since most
apps on the public marketplaces are not security certified, it is
possible for malicious apps to steal/modify enterprise sensitive
information that is resident on these devices. Similarly, given
the compact dimensions of mobile devices, users could potentially
lose their phones, which carry sensitive data. Furthermore, the
myriad on-device sensors generate large amounts of raw sensor
data and managing this data to infer high-level events about the
user and the end device remains a challenge. Additionally,
devices like iPads and Internet tablets are now being
increasingly used in a multi-user environment where continuous
and secure authentication and authorizations for data access is
critical.
