GameSec 2013 - The fourth Conference on Decision and Game Theory for Security

The GameSec conference aims to bring together researchers who are working on the theoretical foundations and behavioral aspects of enhancing security capabilities in a principled manner. Previous GameSec contributions included analytic models based on game, information, communication, optimization, decision, and control theories that were applied to diverse security topics. In addition, we welcome research that highlights the connection between economic incentives and real world security, reputation, trust and privacy problems.
Submitted papers will be evaluated based on their significance, originality, technical quality, and exposition. They should clearly establish the research contribution, their relevance to security and privacy, and their relation to prior research. General theoretic contributions are also welcome if they discuss potential scenarios of application in the areas of security and privacy.
