Introduction
Nowadays, multimedia communication plays an important role in multiple areas in human society including entertainment, politics, economics, militaries, industries, etc. It is urgent to secure multimedia data by providing confidentiality, integrity, and ownership or identity, etc. Generally, multimedia security is highly services-dependable. Different services require different methods for content transmission or distribution, paying, interaction, etc. This workshop aims to bring together research work in the area of secure multimedia communication, investigate the novel solutions for secure multimedia services, and discuss the future trends for multimedia security in new services.

Topics
This workshop covers various aspects of secure multimedia communication in emerging services. The services may work in the following environment: Internet, mobile TV, IPTV, IMS, VoIP, P2P, sensor network, network convergence, etc. The paper may focus on architecture construction, algorithm designing or hardware implementation. Both review paper and technical  paper are expected. The topics include but are not limited to
  Lightweight multimedia encryption
  Secure multimedia adaptation
  Multimedia content authentication
  Sensitive content detection/filtering based on multimedia analysis
  Security threats or model for multimedia services
  Conditional Access and Digital Rights Management
  Key management/distribution in multimedia services
  Secure payment for multimedia services
