CoNEXT is designed as an open, multi-track conference aiming to attract longer-term studies and to contribute to the integration of networking research at the international level. By bringing together a number of successful workshops run by various networking communities, it will encourage much needed synergies between these communities. CoNEXT is a joint conference series having its roots in QoFIS, NGC and MIPS. QoFIS and NGC are highly successful international workshops initiated by two European COST Actions, namely COST263 on Quality of Future Internet Services and COST264 on Networked Group Communications. MIPS resulted from the merging of two other major workshops, namely IDMS (concentrated on interactive and distributed multimedia services) and PROMS (focusing on protocols for networked multimedia systems); also the associated ICQT (Internet Charging and QoS Technology) workshop is integrated into CoNEXT 2005. Examples of relevant topics are: * Autonomic Communications * Context Awareness * Crosslayer Integration * Dependable Networks * Experimental Networking * Identity Management * Internet Economics * Large Test-bed * Mobile Communication * Monitoring * Network Security * Overlay Networks * Scalability * Sensor Networks * Service Engineering * Traffic Engineering * User Perceived QoS * Wireless ----------------------- SUBMISSIONS/PROCEEDINGS ----------------------- Submitted papers must be original, unpublished, and not submitted to another conference or journal for consideration of publication. Papers must be submitted in electronic format following the instructions provided on the CoNEXT web site. The workshop proceedings will be published by ACM. IEEE/ACM ToN will consider fast tracking the very best papers accepted for publication at CoNEXT. --------------- IMPORTANT DATES --------------- Submission: May 6th, 2005 Notification: July 1st, 2005 Final version: August 19th, 2005 ----------------- CONFERENCE CHAIRS ----------------- Michel Diaz, LAAS-CNRS, France Arturo Azcorra, University Carlos III de Madrid, Spain Patrick Snac, ENSICA, France, (Organization chair) -------------- PROGRAM CHAIRS -------------- Philippe Owezarski, LAAS-CNRS, France Serge Fdida, University P&M Curie (Paris 6), France ------------------ STEERING COMMITTEE ------------------ Arturo Azcorra, University Carlos III de Madrid, Spain Fernando Boavida, University of Coimbra, Portugal Michel Diaz, LAAS-CNRS, France Christophe Diot, Intel research Cambridge, UK Serge Fdida, University P&M Curie-Paris, France Laurent Mathy, Lancaster University, UK Jennifer Rexford, AT&T Labs, USA Mikhail Smirnov, Fraunhofer FOKUS, Germany Ioannis Stavrakakis, University of Athens, Greece Burkhard Stiller, University of Zurich and ETH Zurich, Switzerland Giorgio Ventre, University of Napoli, Italy ----------------- PROGRAM COMMITTEE ----------------- Marco Ajmone Marsan, Politecnico di Torino, Italy Kevin Almeroth, UC Santa Barbara, USA Paul Amer, University of Delaware, USA Mostafa Ammar, Georgia Institute of Technology, USA Ernst Biersack, Institut Eurecom, France Olivier Bonaventure, Univ.

CFP - Quality of Protection Workshop - Security Measurements and Metrics

von qop-submission

(* Apologies for multiple copies *) =========================================================================== Preliminary Call for Paper for the 1st International Workshop on QUALITY of PROTECTION - QoP 2005 Security Measurements and Metrics http://dit.unitn.it/~qop/ Milano, Italy, Thu. 15 September 2005. Affiliated with 10th European Symposium on Research in Computer Security (ESORICS 2005) in Milano (12-14 Sep). http://esorics05.dti.unimi.it and the 11th IEEE International Software Metrics Symposium (METRICS 2005) in Como (19-22 Sep) http://www.swmetrics.org/metrics2005 =========================================================================== WORKSHOP OVERVIEW Information Security in Industry has matured in the last few decades. Standards such as ISO17799, the Common Criteria, a number of industrial certification and risk analysis methodologies have raised the bar on what is considered a good security solution from a business perspective. Yet, if we compare Information Security with Networking or Empirical Software Engineering we find a major difference. Networking research has introduced concepts such as Quality of Service and Service Level Agreements. Conferences and Journals are frequently devoted to performance evaluation, QoS and SLAs. Empirical Software Engineering has made similar advances. Notions such as software metrics and measurements are well established. Processes to measure the quality and reliability of software exist and are appreciated in industry. Security looks different. Even a fairly sophisticated standard such as ISO17799 has an intrinsically qualitative nature. Notions such as Security Metrics, Quality of Protection (QoP) or Protection Level Agreement (PLA) have surfaced in the literature but still have a qualitative flavour. The "QoP field" in WS-Security is just a data field to specify a cryptographic algorithm. Indeed, neither ISO17799 nor ISO15408 (the Common Criteria) addresses QoP sufficiently. ISO17799 is a management standard, not directly concerned with the actual quality of protection achieved; ISO15408 is instead a product assessment standard and yet does not answer the question of how a user of a product assessed by it can achieve a high QoP within his/her operational environment. Both standards cover just one aspect of an effective QoP and even the combination of both would not address the aspect sufficiently. "Best practice" standards, such as the baseline protection standard published by many government agencies, also belong to the category of standards that are useful, but not sufficient, for achieving a good QoP. Security is different also in another respect. A very large proportion of recorded security incidents has a non-IT cause. Hence, while the networking and software communities may concentrate on technical features (networks and software), security requires a much wider notion of "system", including users, work processes, organisational structures in addition to the IT infrastructure. The QoP Workshop intends to discuss how security research can progress towards a notion of Quality of Protection in Security comparable to the notion of Quality of Service in Networking, Software Reliability, or Software Measurements and Metrics in Empirical Software Engineering. SUBMISSION TOPICS: Original submissions are solicited from industry and academic experts to presents their work, plans and views related to Quality of Protection. The topics of interest include but are not limited to: * Industrial Experience * Security Risk Analysis * Security Quality Assurance * Measurement-based decision making and risk management * Empirical assessment of security architectures and solutions * Mining data from attacks and vulnerabilities repositories * Security metrics * Measurement theory and formal theories of security metrics * Security measurement and monitoring, * Experimental verification and validation of models, * Simulation and statistical analysis, stochastic modeling * Reliability analysis INVITED SPEAKERS - Stefano De Panfilis - Engineering SpA (IT) - TBA IMPORTANT DATES: - Fri 10 June - Paper submissions - Fri 8 July - Notification of acceptance - Mon 12 Sep - Wed 14 Sep ESORICS - Thu 15 Sep - QoP Workshop - Mon 19 Sep - Thu 22 Sep IEEE METRICS in Como PAPER SUBMISSION: Original RESEARCH PAPERS are solicited in any of the above mentioned topics. Research papers should be limited to 12 pages in the standard Springer Verlag format, describing significant research results based on sound theory or experimental assessment. We also solicit INDUSTRY EXPERIENCE REPORTS, limited to 6 pages, about the use of security measurements and metrics in industrial environments. Industry papers should have at least one author from industry or government, and will be considered for their industrial relevance. PUBLICATION: Authors of accepted papers will be expected to give full presentations at the workshop. Revised versions of the papers presented at the workshop will be published by Kluwer/Springer in the Applied Security Series.

The host city’s or country’s reputation on being able to organize such world class events may depend on the mastery of providing a "Perfect Network". This workshop is a unique gathering opportunity for select industry executives, seasoned managers, expert researchers and senior subject matter experts from sponsor organizations of world class events, telecommunication companies, and government officials of host cities/countries to discuss the requirements and steps necessary to build and operate a "Perfect Network" for such events. They will share experiences, plans, "do lists", and their vision to ensure a "Perfect Network". An intense day of selected presentations and possible refreshing panel discussions will focus on how to avoid "re-inventing the wheel" every time that a city or country becomes a candidate/host for such world class events. Confirmed Key Speakers of the industrial track: - Delivering an Olympic Class Network in 2010, Justin Webb, Vice President Olympic Solutions, Bell Canada - Telecommunication Challenges for the Olympic Games, Spilios Makris, Director Olympic Program, Telcordia - Telecommunications at the Athens 2004 Summer Olympics, Yiannis Antoniadis, Olympic Games Telecommunications Command & Control Deputy Manager, OTE - World Class Events - Telecommunication Challenges, Alex Iliadis, Athens 2004 Telecom Manager Key speeches will be 45 minutes long plus 15 minutes for questions.
