Technical enhancements of mobile network infrastructures and the availability of powerful mobile devices are rapidly changing the way in which users interact and communicate in everyday life. These devices include but not limited to PDA, mobile phone, smart card, wireless sensors, and RFID tags. Among the main common features of these devices include constraint resources and wireless communications. WISTP 2011 aims to address the security and privacy issues that are increasingly exposed by mobile communications and related services, along with evaluating their impact on individuals, and the society at large.

The workshop seeks submissions from academia and industry presenting novel research on all theoretical and practical aspects of security and privacy of mobile and smart devices, as well as experimental studies of fielded systems based on wireless communication, the application of security technology, the implementation of systems, and lessons learned. We encourage submissions from other communities such as law and business that present these communities' perspectives on technological issues.
