While there are many definitions of the Internet of Things (IoT), all of them

such as wireless communication, sensors, actuators, and RFID, in order to allow
people and things to be connected anytime anyplace, with anything and anyone.
However, before this new vision takes its first steps, it is essential to
consider the security implications of billions of intelligent things
cooperating with other real and virtual entities over the Internet.
SecIoT'10, held in conjunction with the
Internet of Things 2010 Conference,
wants to bring together researchers and professionals from
universities, private companies and Public Administrations interested or involved in
all security-related heterogeneous aspects of the Internet of Things.
We invite research papers, work-in-progress reports, R&D projects results, surveying
works and industrial experiences describing significant security advances in the following
(non-exclusive) areas of the Internet of Things:
