Workshop: Long-lasting Security


Please login to the registration to participate in this workshop.


Co-located with the International Conference on
Emerging Trends in Information and Communication Security (ETRICS’06)
June 6-9, 2006, Freiburg, Germany

Concerns about the long-term security of digital data and communication are growing for many applications, such as archiving, notarial acts, secure transmission of genome data, and many workflows in the banking and financial industries, e-health, and e-government. Security goals, such as availability, authenticity, integrity, and confidentiality of documents and communication contents are in danger when viewed from a long-term perspective.

In contrast to paper documents, the probative force of electronically signed documents can decrease over time due to advances in cryptographic research, the increasing computational power to break keys and the possible realization of the quantum computer. These advances might also allow long-term and/or future attacks on encrypted communication over public networks, thus threatening the confidentiality of the contents. Additionally, legal regulations often demand time spans for document preservation which are well beyond the expected lifetime of common data formats. The transformation into current formats imposes new challenges, especially for signed documents.

This workshop aims at the discussion of recent advances in organizational and technical means providing long-term security. Theoretical work, prototypes and experimental studies are equally welcome.
