Call for Papers for the Workshop "Security in Autonomous Systems"
Are privacy and security mutually exclusive?
Co-located with the International Conference on
Emerging Trends in Information and Communication Security (ETRICS’06)
June 6-9, 2006, Freiburg, Germany
http://www.etrics.org/workshops
From a technological point of view, the current pace of organizational change is amongst other factors driven by the rapid development of technology. Future systems are characterized by: (a) autonomous components and their ad hoc relationships; (b) constant growth: the amount of communicated data steadily grows, data is avidly collected in various forms, and is possibly persistent; and (c) dynamic negotiation of requirements: changing and possibly conflicting requirements of the components have to be taken into account. The resulting systems are therefore called highly dynamic systems.
However, today’s IT-security methods are insufficient for both privacy and security, as they are designed with current information systems in mind, which are static and incapable of coping with change. Necessary steps to address this problem include the elicitation of requirements and the analysis for vulnerabilities. These give a basis for consistent security policies, which regulate secure inter-organizational collaboration. Security testing then confirms policy enforcement and the effectiveness of protection mechanisms.
This workshop centers around the question “are privacy and security mutually exclusive in autonomous systems?” For this, it solicits modern, outstanding approaches to provide, model and test security guarantees in highly dynamic systems, as well as practical experiences on deploying secure applications. Thematically, this workshop focuses on, but is not restricted to:
- Scenarios and applications for highly dynamic systems
- Security architectures and mechanisms for dynamic systems
- Policy languages for changing security requirements
- Elicitation of changing security requirements for IT-systems
- Vulnerability analysis in highly dynamic systems
- Dynamic process models for secure collaboration
- Security testing for highly dynamic systems
- Mapping changing requirements into IT
- Service engineering for secure highly dynamic systems
