The IEEE TSCloud 2013 Symposium brings together researchers with an interest in theoretical foundations and practical approaches to trust and security in cloud computing. The emphasis is on high-impact, novel/adopted theories and paradigms that address mathematical and logical underpinnings in trust and security in cloud computing, e.g. encryption, obfuscation, virtualisation security, governance, accountability, etc. Following the success of the first two TSCloud symposiums in Changsha and Liverpool, this year's TSCloud will focus on "Top Problems in Achieving Cloud Computing Security and Trust". As cloud computing matures and experiences increased adoption, the security of both data and infrastructures increases in importance. We invite researchers and practitioners to submit their novel ideas, interesting innovation or even surveys on important cloud security and trust topics.

Topics of interest for both main and demo tracks include, but are not limited to:

* Malware detection in cloud computing
* Cryptography and encryption techniques for cloud computing
* Data obfuscation for cloud computing
* Accountability in cloud computing
* Identity management in cloud computing
* Account and Domain management in cloud computing
* Security in virtualized environments
* Governance, regulation and compliance in cloud computing
* Data analytics for security in cloud computing
* Visualization for security in cloud computing
* Cloud computing threat detection techniques
* Trust in cloud services
* Trust reputation systems for cloud computing
* Reports on critical, real-life security and trust use cases in cloud computing
* Secure and trusted workflows in cloud computing
* Techniques preventing the nefarious use of cloud computing
* Cloud data leakage and data loss
* Position papers on issues in security and trust in cloud computing
