The Fifth International Conference on
Risks and Security of Internet and Systems
CRiSIS 2010

IEEE Computer Society technical co-sponsorship

The International Conference on Risks and Security of Internet and Systems 2010 will be the 5th in a series dedicated to security issues in Internet-related applications, networks and systems. In recent years, the Internet has become essential for the exchange of information between user groups and organizations from different backgrounds and with different needs and objectives. These users are exposed to increasing risks regarding security and privacy, due to the development of more and more sophisticated online attacks, the growth of Cyber Crime, etc. Attackers nowadays do not lack motivation and they are increasingly experienced. To make matters worse, tools for performing attacks have become easily accessible. Moreover, the increasing complexity and the immaturity of new technologies such as pervasive, mobile and wireless devices and networks, raise new security challenges.

In this context, new security mechanisms and techniques should be deployed to achieve an assurance level acceptable for critical domains such as transportation, health, defence, banking, critical infrastructures, embedded systems and networks, avionics systems, etc. The CRiSIS conference offers a remarkable forum for computer and network security actors from industry, academia and government to meet, exchange ideas and present recent advances on Internet-related security threats and vulnerabilities, and on the solutions that are needed to counter them.

Scope

The topics addressed by CRiSIS range from the analysis of risks, attacks to networks and system survivability, to security models, security mechanisms and privacy enhancing technologies. The authors are invited to submit research results as well as practical experiment or deployment reports. Industrial papers about applications or case studies are also welcomed in different domains (e.g., telemedicine, banking, e-government, e-learning, e-commerce, critical infrastructures, mobile networks, embedded applications, etc.). The list of topics includes but is not limited to:

* Analysis and management of risk
* Attacks and defences
* Attack data acquisition (honeypots) and network monitoring
* Cryptography, Biometrics, Watermarking
* Dependability and fault tolerance of Internet applications
* Distributed systems security
* Embedded system security
* Intrusion detection and prevention systems
* Hardware-based security and physical security
* Key management infrastructure (PKI) and trust management
* Organizational, ethical and legal issues
* Privacy protection, anonymization, PETs
* Security and dependability of operating systems
* Security and safety of critical infrastructures
* Security and privacy of peer-to-peer systems
* Security and privacy of wireless networks
* Security models and security policies
* Security of new generation networks, security of VoIP and multimedia
* Security of e-commerce, electronic voting and database systems
* Traceability, metrology and forensics
* Use of smartcards and personal devices for Internet applications
