6th European Symposium on Research in Computer Security

 

       

October 4­6, 2000, Toulouse, France


Topics



We solicit papers describing original ideas and new results on the foundations and applications of computer security. The primary focus is on high-quality original  unpublished research, case studies and implementation experiences. We encourage submissions of papers discussing industrial research and development.

Suggested topics include but are not limited to:
 

  •    Theoretical Foundations of Security: security models and specifications, formal logic, formal development techniques.
  •    Operating Systems Security: access control, security models, protection mechanisms, new OS paradigms.
  •    Distributed Systems: client/server models, distributed object systems, distributed audit, multi-domain distributed systems.
  •    Network Security: authentication, key management, multilevel secure networks.
  •    Telecommunications and High Speed Network Security: security and quality of service, ATM firewalls, security of new communication protocols, EDI.
  •    Internet Security: firewalls, IP v6, secure authentication, privacy, anonymity.
  •    Security and mobile systems: Java, ActiveX, certification for mobile code.
  •    Security in Data and Knowledge Bases: access and inference controls, secure DBMS, transaction management, integrity.
  •    Development of Secure Systems: security requirement engineering, software development environment, high assurance software.
  •    Management of Secure Systems: liability, accountability, auditing, intrusion detection, administration tools.
  •    Electronic Commerce: electronic cash, electronic wallets, fund transfer, Internet commerce.
  •    Security of small systems: PDA, smart card, embedded systems.
  •    Intellectual Property Protection: software protection, watermarking, pay-per-view, network distribution of software.
  •    Multimedia and Digital Libraries: access control, information flow control, security of indexes and directories.
  •    New applications of Cryptography: steganography, subliminal channels.
  •    Security versus other Requirements: security and costs, risk analysis, security policy design, safety, availability, survivability.
