CISS 2013 - Communications and Information Systems Security Symposium (CISS)

Communications and Information Systems Security Symposium (CISS)
ICC 2013, June 9-13, 2013, Budapest, Hungary
The 2013 IEEE International Conference on Communications (ICC) will be held in the vibrant city of Budapest, Hungary from 9 - 13 June 2013. This flagship conference of IEEE Communications Society aims at addressing an essential theme on "Bridging the Broadband Divide." The conference will feature a comprehensive technical program including several Symposia and a number of Tutorials and Workshops. IEEE ICC 2013 will also include an attractive expo program including keynote speakers, various Business, Technology and Industry forum, and vendor exhibits. We invite you to submit your original technical papers, industry forum, workshop, and tutorial proposals to this event. Accepted and presented papers will be published in the IEEE ICC 2013 Conference Proceedings and in IEEEXplore. Full details of submission procedures are available at http://www.ieee-icc.org/2013.
Scope and Topics of Interest
The Communications and Information Systems Security Symposium (CISS) will focus on all aspects of security, privacy, trust, and risk management, which pose a serious challenge to today's globally connected society. The symposium welcomes novel contributions on evaluation, modeling, analysis, and design of communication and information systems security solutions, from the physical layer to the application layer. In addition, this year's CISS emphasizes security risk management of information systems where quantitative models are utilized to balance available resources against security risks.
To ensure a complete coverage of the advances in communication and information systems security, the CISS presents original contributions in, but not limited to, the following topical areas:
- Anonymity, anonymous communication, measures and performance analysis
- Authentication protocols and message authentication
- Authorization and access control
- Availability and survivability of secure services and systems
- Biometric security: technologies, risks, vulnerabilities, bio-cryptography, anonymity and privacy
- Botnet prevention, detection and defense
- Cloud and distributed application security
- Computer and network forensics
- Cyber security
- Datacenter security
- DDOS attacks, DNS spoofing, intrusion, localization and countermeasures
- Digital rights management: information hiding, watermarking, and fingerprinting
- Firewall technologies; intrusion detection, localization, and avoidance
- Formal trust models, security modeling and protocol design
