RISE 2012 - Workshop on Redefining and Integrating Security Engineering

The main goal of the RISE workshop is to provide a forum for presenting and discussing novel security engineering approaches that make advanced security mechanisms available for the development of secure systems in various application domains. RISE has a special focus on integrative approaches with different routes of integration. First, security engineering needs to be integrated with existing software engineering and system development processes. Further, security engineering shall integrate techniques and tools from IT security, including security requirements specification, security testing, or advanced security solutions. Thus, the RISE workshop invites contributions from the view of engineering processes as well as contributions focusing on security requirements elicitation and specification for application domains with particularly challenging combinations of security requirements and other functional or non-functional requirements. In addition, the question of how security certification can be supported by engineering processes is relevant.
Security engineering is currently developing towards becoming an engineering discipline. Nevertheless, security engineering can never be successful in separation from other disciplines or simply as concentration of IT security experts. In contrast, it shall become one connector between different disciplines. Therefore, RISE not only targets information and communication technology security experts and developers of engineering methods, but also invites experts security-related knowledge from different application domains. Especially in the case of particular domains or systems with additional non-functional properties (such as embedded systems or real-time systems) and systems with legal, compliance or regulatory requirements, proper security engineering approaches will provide important advantages.
