The International Conference on Risks and Security of Internet and
Systems 2011 will be the 6th in a series dedicated to security issues in
Internet-related applications, networks and systems.
The CRiSIS conference offers an effective forum for computer and network
security researchers 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.

The topics addressed by CRiSIS range from the analysis of risks, attacks
to networks and system survivability, passing through security models,
security mechanisms and privacy enhancing technologies. Prospective
authors are invited to submit research results as well as practical
experiment or deployment reports. Industrial papers about applications
and case studies, such as telemedicine, banking, e-government and
critical infrastructure, are also welcome. The list of topics includes
but is not limited to:

* Analysis and management of risks
* Attacks and defences
* Attack data acquisition 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
* Trust management
* Organizational, ethical and legal issues
* Privacy protection and anonymization
* Security and dependability of operating systems
* Security and safety of critical infrastructures
