CFP:

IT devices are day-by-day becoming more pervasive in several application 
fields and in the everyday life. The major driving factors are the ever 
increasing coverage of the Internet connectivity, the extreme popularity 
and capillarity of smartphones, tablets and wearables, together with the 
consolidation of the Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm. As a matter of 
fact, interconnected devices directly control and take decisions on 
industrial processes, regulate infrastructures and services in 
smart-cities, and manage quality-of-life and safety in smart-homes, 
taking decisions with user interactions or even autonomously. The 
involvement of these devices in so many applications, unfortunately 
introduces a set of unavoidable security and safety implications, 
related to both the criticality of the aforementioned applications and 
to the privacy of sensitive information produced and exploited in the 
process. To address these and other related issues, there is an 
increasing need of instruments to control the access and the right to 
perform specific actions on devices or data. These instruments need to 
be able to cope with the high complexity of the considered applications 
and environments, being flexible and adaptable to different contexts and 
architectures, from centralized to fully-distributed, able to handle a 
high amount of information as well as taking into account 
non-conventional trust assumptions. The considered technologies should 
regulate the actions of both human users and autonomous devices, being 
effective in enforcing security policies, still without introducing 
noticeable overhead, both on the side of performance and user 
experience. Hence, the design of secure and efficient mechanisms for 
continuous authentication, requiring limited-to-no active interaction is 
solicited. The ETAA workshop aims at being a forum for researchers and 
practitioners of security active in the field of new technologies for 
the authentication of users and devices, and for the enforcement of 
security policies in new and emerging applications and environments.
