*************************************************************
Knowledge management is the methodology for systematically
gathering, organizing, and disseminating knowledge. It
essentially consists of processes and tools to effectively
capture and share knowledge as well as use the knowledge of
individuals within an organization. Knowledge Management
Systems (KMS) promote sharing information among employees and
require security mechanisms to prevent unauthorized access
and misuse. Security is a major issue revolving around KMS.
The Secure Knowledge Management Workshop aims to raise
awareness of academics and practitioners in this critical
area of research by presenting papers containing ideas,
directions, and questions that need to be tackled by the
research community, as well as traditional scientific papers
presenting results.
Topics of interest include, and are not limited to:
---------------------------------------------------
* Developing access controls and policies for knowledge
management
* Statistical data mining techniques under security and
privacy constraints
* Methods for measuring security effectiveness
* Design techniques for secure knowledge systems
* Integration for data management, information management and
knowledge management
* Inference control policies for sensitive knowledge
manipulation
* Secure knowledge query manipulation languages
* Security and privacy assertion markup languages
* B2B circles of trust
* Return on investment in secure knowledge systems
* Digital policy management
* Secure content management
* Knowledge management for national security
* Security and privacy in knowledge management
* Network security in the context of knowledge management
* Economic issues in securing knowledge
* Trust management
* Human factors in knowledge management
* Security, privacy and economic issues in information sharing
* Intersection of knowledge and security policy management
