Welcome to the 4th SETOP International Workshop on
Autonomous and Spontaneous Security
This fourth edition of the SETOP workshop will be held at the
K.U.Leuven Nieuwe Valk, in Leuven (Belgium), the 15th and 16th of
September of 2011, in conjunction with the 16th annual European
research event in Computer Security (ESORICS
2011) symposium.
We invite researchers and practitioners from all countries working in
autonomous security, privacy, trustworthy data systems and related
areas to participate in the event.
Overview
Security and reliability have become a major concern for service
oriented applications as well as for communications systems and
networks. With the need for evolution, if not revolution, of current
network architectures and the Internet, autonomous and spontaneous
management will be a key feature of future networks and information
systems. In this context, security is an essential property. It must
be thought at the early stage of conception of these systems and
designed to be also autonomous and spontaneous.
Future networks and systems must be able to automatically configure
themselves with respect to their security policies. The security
policy specification must be dynamic and adapt itself to the changing
environment. Those networks and systems should interoperate securely
when their respective security policies are heterogeneous and possibly
conflicting. They must be able to autonomously evaluate the impact of
an intrusion in order to spontaneously select the appropriate and
relevant response when a given intrusion is detected. Autonomous and
spontaneous security is a major requirement of future networks and
systems. Of course, it is crucial to address this issue in different
wireless and mobile technologies available today such as RFID, Wifi,
Wimax, 3G, etc. Other technologies such as ad hoc and sensor networks,
which introduce new type of services, also share similar requirements
for an autonomous and spontaneous management of security.
Topics
The SETOP Workshop seeks submissions that present research results
on all aspects related to spontaneous and autonomous security.
Submissions by PhD students are encouraged. Topics of interest
include, but are not limited to the following:
- Security policy deployment
- Self evaluation of risk and impact
- Distributed intrusion detection
- Autonomous and spontaneous response
- Trust establishment
- Lightweight cryptography
- Selfish behaviour and collaboration enforcement
- Security in autonomous networks
- Security in ad hoc networks
- Security in sensor/RFID networks
- Security of Next Generation Networks
- Security in Cloud Computing
- Security of Service Oriented Architecture
- Security of opportunistic networks
- Privacy policies
- Privacy-aware environments
- Privacy in self-organized networks
- Cryptography and Cryptanalysis
