The Fifth Workshop on
Security In Communications networKs
(SICK 2009)
http://www.sick-workshop.org
Zürich, Switzerland
Octobar, 2009
to be held in conjunction with
the 34th Annual IEEE Conference
on Local Computer Networks (LCN 2009),
October 20-23, 2009, Zürich, Switzerland
CALL FOR PAPERS
The proliferation of commercial activities over different networked systems has
brought security concerns on an unprecedented scale. From traditional
Internet-based applications to newly emerging ubiquitous services over 3G,
Wireless LAN, and mobile ad hoc and sensor networks, there is an increasing
demand of measures to guarantee the confidentiality, integrity, and availability
of system services.
The main purpose of this workshop is to promote further research interests and
activities on network security. It is also aimed at increasing the synergy
between academic and industrial researchers working in this area. We are
interested in experimental, systems-related, and work-in-progress papers in all
aspects of network security.
The topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
* Novel and emerging secure architecture
* Study of attack strategies, attack modeling
* Case studies and analysis of actual attacks
* Continuity of Operations during an attack
* Key management
* Trust management
* Intrusion detection techniques
* Intrusion response, alarm management, and correlation analysis
* Study of tradeoffs between security and system performance
* Intrusion tolerance systems
* Secure protocols
* Security in wireless networks (e.g. mesh networks, sensor networks, etc.)
Authors are invited to submit full papers for presentation at the workshop.
Papers (no more than 8 camera-ready pages, in IEEE TRANSACTION format) should
describe original, previously unpublished work, not currently under review by
another conference, workshop, or journal. All accepted papers will appear in the
IEEE LCN conference proceedings. All paper submissions will be handled
electronically via EDAS: http://edas.info/7231
Important Dates:
Paper submission deadline: May 8, 2009
Notification of acceptance: July 7, 2009
Camera-ready paper due: July 28, 2008

Liebe Mitglieder,
auf der gestrigen Fachgruppenversammlung wurden unter Wahlleitung von
Frau Prof. Ulrike Meyer folgende 4 Personen als Leitungsgremium der FG
NetSec gewählt:
Ammar Alkassar
Prof. Mark Manulis
Prof. Jörg Schwenk
Dr. Christopher Wolf
Die Amtszeit beträgt 3 Jahre. Sprecher & stv. Sprecher des
Leitungsgremiums müssen noch formal gewählt werden - derzeit sieht es
allerdings danach aus, als ob dies Prof. Schwenk (Sprecher) und Prof.
Manulis (stv. Spreche) übernehmen werden.
Da der gestrige Workshop mit rd. 35 Teilnehmern aus Industrie, Forschung
sowie Studierenden sehr erfolgreich war, wird es ihn (mit anderer
thematischer Ausrichtung) wohl auch kommendes Jahr wieder geben.
Beste Grüße,
Christopher Wolf
