W2SP brings together researchers, practitioners, web programmers, policy makers, and others interested in the latest understanding and advances in the security and privacy of the web, browsers, cloud, mobile and their eco-system. We have had eight years of successful W2SP workshops.

W2SP is held in conjunction with the IEEE Symposium on Security and privacy, which will take place from May 18-20 2015, at the Fairmont Hotel in San Jose, California. W2SP will continue to be open-access: all papers will be made available on the workshop website, and authors will not need to forfeit their copyright.

We are seeking both short position papers (2–4 pages) and longer papers (a maximum of 10 pages). Papers must be formatted for US letter (not A4) size paper with margins of at least 3/4 inch on all sides. The text must be formatted in a two-column layout, with columns no more than 9 in. high and 3.375 in. wide. The text must be in Times font, 10-point or larger, with 12-point or larger line spacing. Authors are encouraged to use the IEEE conference proceedings templates.

The scope of W2SP 2015 includes, but is not limited to:

Any questions should be directed to the program chair: sthorpe@utech.edu.jm OR abigailt@il.ibm.com.
