---------- The 6th International Workshop on Reliability and Security Data Analysis -----------
------------------------------------------ RSDA 2021 ------------------------------------------ co-located with The 32nd Annual IEEE International Symposium on Software Reliability Engineering (ISSRE 2021) Hybrid conference (allowing either in-person or online remote presentations), to be held in Wuhan, China, 25-28 Oct 2021 The workshop follows its past successful editions held at both ISSRE and DSN (RSDA 2020, RSDA 2019, RSDA 2016, RSDA 2014, RSDA 2013). RSDA 2021 aims to concentrate ideas and contributions from academic and industrial organizations addressing reliability and security of computer systems through data analysis. The 6th RSDA Edition is co-located with the prestigious 32nd Annual IEEE International Symposium on Software Reliability Engineering (ISSRE 2021), which will be a hybrid conference due to the worldwide situation regarding COVID-19 (allowing either in-person or online remote presentations). *** RSDA 2021 will be virtual!!! *** RSDA 2021 will be a full virtual workshop. Authors of accepted workshop papers are expected to give a remote talk, with no in-person attendance. RSDA aims to gather high-quality papers on data-driven methodologies, measurements from production systems, and analysis of large datasets. The papers accepted at RSDA 2021 will be included in the ISSRE Supplemental Proceedings as well as in the ISSRE-W volume on IEEE Xplore. https://sites.google.com/view/rsda2021/home-page Contact: Raffaele Della Corte - raffaele.dellacorte@critiware.com Workshop Co-chairs Raffaele Della Corte, Critiware, ITA Marta Catillo, Università degli Studi del Sannio, ITA João F. Ferreira, INESC-ID & IST - University of Lisbon, PORTUGAL Guanpeng (Justin) Li, University of Iowa, USA SCOPE OF RSDA Computer systems are the basis for daily human activities and, more importantly, they play a key role in a variety of critical domains. Assessing dependability properties of computer systems is today an important concern for engineers and practitioners. The analysis of textual/numeric data and log files produced under real workload conditions by applications, systems, and networks, intrusion detection systems, monitors and issue-trackers plays a key role for dependability assessment. Data analysis is crucial in a variety of engineering tasks, such as measuring availability and reliability of a system, characterizing failures, gaining insights into the progression of security attacks, designing mitigation means and countermeasures. Academia and industry widely recognize the inherent potential of reliability and security data analysis for assessing dependability of computer systems and operational networks, and improving the engineering process. Data analysis in these specific areas poses many challenging research questions due to the heterogeneity, volume and velocity of the collected data, the lack of systematic end-to-end analysis procedures, the increasing diversity of analysis objectives and emerging application domains in critical areas. RSDA ADDRESSES, BUT IT IS NOT LIMITED TO, THE FOLLOWING RESEARCH ISSUES/TOPICS: - Event logs and security-related data collection, processing and management; - Monitoring and analysis of resource utilization metrics; - Dependability and security monitoring, measurement and modeling; - Anomaly detection; - Analysis of attacks, defenses, and countermeasures; - Adversarial machine learning: - Security Information and Event Management (SIEM); - Data visualization; - Intrusion detection and prevention; - Denial-of-Service and botnet analysis, detection, and mitigation; - Application security status monitoring; - Behavior-based fraud and threat detection; - Insider threat and functional misuse detection; - Error/Failure detection and characterization; - Failure prediction and recovery techniques; - Failure data analysis and field studies; - Fault and intrusion tolerance; - Defect analysis and Software Reliability Growth Models (SRGM); - Dependability and security forensics; - Generation of synthetic data sets for benchmarking dependability/security techniques; - Dependability and security analysis of large datasets and production systems; - Machine Learning for security.
