Abstract

In this paper we address the realization of personal privacy control in pervasive computing. We argue that personal privacy demands differ substantially from those assumed in enterprise privacy control. This is demonstrated by introducing seven requirements specific for personal privacy, which are then used for the definition of our privacy policy language, called SenTry. It is designed to take into account the expected level of privacy from the perspective of the individual when interacting with context-aware services. SenTry serves as the base for implementing personal privacy in our User-centric Privacy Framework for pervasive computing.
