Introduction

Recent advances in computer communications and networking techniques
in technologies such as, Internet of Things, 5G, AI, etc., has
resulted in emerging challenges in realizing security, privacy, trust

can preserve security and trust, without violating privacy and
providing incentives to participate and collaborate.  The 'Security,
Privacy, Trust and Incentives' (SPTI) track of the 29th International
Conference on Computer Communications and Networks (ICCCN), welcomes
submissions of original papers from researchers and practitioners
working in the fields of security, privacy, and trusted systems as
well as incentive mechanisms. The track seeks novel contributions on
algorithm and system design, implementation, and evaluations.

Track Topics of interest include but not limited to:

- Anonymization and privacy 
- Blockchain based decentralized trust management
- Cloud security
