Scope

Wireless and Mobile communication networks offer organizations and users

several

benefits, such as portability, mobility and flexibility, while increasing

everyday

business productivity, and reducing installation cost. Wireless Local Area

Networks,

for instance, have been used in various environments, such as business,

home,

conference centers, airports and many more, allowing users to move from

place to

place, avoiding cabling restrictions and without being disconnected from

the network.

Ad Hoc Networks are collections of wireless computers communicating among

themselves

over possibly multihop paths, without the help of any infrastructure such

as base

stations or access points; these networks allow data synchronization with

network

systems and application sharing between devices. Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

are autonomous

collection of mobile entities that communicate over relatively bandwidth

constrained

wireless links, establishing survivable, efficient, dynamic communication

for emergency

operations. Wireless Ad Hoc Sensor Networks consist of a number of sensors

spread

across a geographical area, offering certain capabilities and enhancements

in

operational efficiency in civilian applications, as well as assisting in

international

effort to increase alertness to potential threats.

However, although Wireless and Mobile communication environments eliminate

many of the

problems associated with traditional wired networks, the new security and

privacy risks

introduced by such environments need to be reduced by exploiting

appropriate security

measures and safeguards, ensuring an acceptable level of overall residual

hazard.

The objectives of the SecPri_WiMob 2009 Workshop are to bring together

researchers from

research communities in Wireless and Mobile Computing, Networking and

Communications,

Security and Privacy, with the goal of fostering interaction
