===================== SPFC2 2018===========================

In cloud and fog computing field, security and privacy threats have been extensively studied and received considerable attention in recent few years, as witnessed by the number of related publications. In the context of these trends, the forthcoming workshop on recent advances on Security and Privacy in Fog and Cloud Computing will address significant issues in the field. The main goal of this workshop is to encourage both researchers and practitioners to share and exchange their experiences and recent studies with a particular emphasis on interdisciplinary approaches and novel techniques to increase the security posture of Cloud/fog computing. Therefore, the suggested topics of interest for International Workshop on Security and Privacy in Fog and Cloud Computing (SPFC2-2018) include, but are not limited to:

· Authentication in cloud/fog computing

· Information management in cloud/fog computing

· Auditing and accountability in cloud/fog computing

· Access control mechanisms in cloud/fog computing

· Security models and frameworks for cloud/fog applications

· Key management in cloud/fog computing

· Privacy preserving in cloud/fog computing

· Privacy enhanced technologies for cloud/fog applications

· Data confidentiality in cloud/fog devices

· Security and privacy in SDN/NFV Networks

· Intrusion Detection & Prevention in cloud/fog computing

· Security and privacy in Internet of Things (IoT)

· Cyber physical security of cloud/fog devices
