The recent past has brought an increasing use of integrated online services for information discovery, the publication of personal information and an extensive exchange of opinions. Companies and institutions have greatly enhance their means to collect information about individuals at the same time, and their deployment and utilization is ever more sophisticated and widespread. A parallel trend exhibits the move towards cloud computing, the outsourcing of both data and processing to external providers.
The Privacy and Inference workshop in consequence aims at uniting scientists that are currently interested in, and working on solutions to better protect the privacy of both the individuals with the desire to share information online, as well as institutions that actively outsource data and computation to cloud providers. It will hence encompass research advances in all areas of private inference and countermeasures to unwanted inference on personal information.

The world’s greatest IT security and civil rights experts, including Bruce Schneier, Richard Stallman, andBart Preneel, will engage in intense panel sessions and TED-style keynotes, with EU civilian and defense institutions, and high-assurance IT industry leaders.
The main goal of the workshop, and its follow ups, is to jointly define innovative techno-organizational certifications and certification governance models – within some current legislative frameworks – for next generation high-assurance IT services, supply chains, and lawful access schemes. These will assume no trust in anything or anyone critically involved in all critical IT service life-cycle components, from certifications governance to hardware fabrication oversight. They will further assume that highly-skilled state and non-state attackers, with very limited actual liability risk, willing to variously devote tens of M€ to compromise the supply chain.
