Proceedings of the 2017 on Multimedia Privacy and Security

It is our great pleasure to welcome you to the 1st International Workshop on Multimedia Privacy and Security - MPS 2017. We are pleased to present this newly-established workshop that brings together researchers and practitioners in the fields of multimedia, data privacy, and cybersecurity. MPS 2017 highlights the important intersection of these fields that has been brought about by the emergence and widespread adoption of social media, Internet of Things (IoT), and other ubiquitous computing platforms. Indeed, with the rise of social media, mobile technologies, cloud services, and IoT, massive quantities of multimedia content are created and disseminated as users post updates that include personal information, video and audio data, and other analytical information. Multimedia has arguably expanded well beyond the scope of its original definition. Our call for papers attracted submissions from North America, Central America, Asia, and Europe. We received seven submissions, of which three were selected as Full Papers (42%) and two were accepted as Short Papers after a double-blind review by our program committee. In addition to these presentations, we will feature an invited keynote address and discussion panel: An NSF View of Multimedia Privacy and Security, Mr. Jeremy Epstein (Deputy Division Director, Computer and Network Systems, National Science Foundation) Multimedia Security and Privacy with IoT and Social Networks, moderated by Kurt Rohloff and Roger Hallman
