DIMVA 2005
Second GI SIG SIDAR Conference on
Detection of Intrusions & Malware, and Vulnerability Assessment
In Cooperation with the IEEE Task Force on Information Assurance
Vienna, Austria
July 7 - 8, 2005
http://www.dimva.org/dimva2005
mailto:info@dimva.org
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The special interest group Security - Intrusion Detection and Response
(SIDAR) of the German Informatics Society (GI) organizes DIMVA as an
annual conference that brings together experts from throughout Europe
to discuss the state of the art in the areas of intrusion detection,
detection of malware, and assessment of vulnerabilities. DIMVA
emphasizes the collaboration and exchange of ideas between industry,
academia, law enforcement and government, and invites four types of
submissions:
- Full papers of up to 6000 words, presenting novel and mature research
results. Full papers will be reviewed, and papers accepted for
presentation at the conference will be included in the proceedings,
which are planned to appear in Springers Lecture Notes in Computer
Science (LNCS) series.
- Industry papers of up to 2000 words, describing best practices,
case studies, lessons learned, or latest product developments.
Industry papers will be reviewed and, if accepted for presentation
at the conference, will be published at the DIMVA 2005 Web site.
- Panel proposals for the discussion of hot topics in the areas of
intrusion detection, malware, or vulnerability assessment. Panel
proposals should include a short rationale for the panel, a
description of the proposed panel format, and names of panelists.
- Proposals of two-to-three-hour tutorials on topics of current or
emerging interest. Tutorial proposals must not exceed three pages.
They must clearly identify the intended audience, include a brief
biography of the speaker, and contain enough material to provide
a sense of their scope and depth. Tutorial material will be
published on the DIMVA 2005 Web site.
The scope of DIMVA is broad and includes, but is not restricted to
the following areas:
Intrusion detection:
- Novel intrusion detection and correlation techniques such as alert
fusion or honey pots
- Intrusion detection in special environments such as control systems
or mobile networks
- Assessment, testing, and benchmarking of intrusion detection systems
- Automated response systems and intrusion prevention systems
- Incident management and response, response team cooperation, and
legal issues
Malware:
- Detection and prevention of viruses, worms, Trojan horses, and
other forms of malware
- Malware trends and statistics
- Techniques used to increase the harmfulness of malware
- Detailed analysis and discussion of the latest malware as well as
computer and network forensics in general
Vulnerability assessment:
- New reverse engineering techniques
- Circumvention of security mechanisms such as bypassing of buffer
overflow protection
- Risk evaluation and weighing, ROI on vulnerability assessments and
management
- Software development, testing, and verification methodologies for
IT-security
DIMVA specifically encourages interdisciplinary papers that combine
elements from all three main areas, as well as papers from other
communities such as machine learning, law, crime detection and
investigation, or economics that present these communities
perspectives on and contributions to the above IT security issues.
