IEEE/IFIP DISSECT 2015 - IEEE/IFIP Workshop on Security for Emerging Distributed Network Technologies

The emergence of next generation networking technologies and paradigms, such as cloud computing and software defined networking, has completely transformed the way networks are designed, deployed, and managed, and has brought a multitude of challenges to the spotlight of worldwide research. In this context, security has been one of the areas of major concern and thus research interest, especially with the growing demands of the general public for secure, trustworthy, and privacy-preserving data communication and management.
The main goal of the International Workshop on Security for Emerging Distributed Network Technologies (DISSECT) is to put focus on security issues and challenges arising with the emergence of novel networking technologies and paradigms. The workshop will shed light on new challenges and present state-of-the-art research on the various security aspects of next-generation networking technologies and service management frameworks.
DISSECT will offer a venue for bringing together students, researchers, and professionals from academia and industry sharing common interest on security challenges related to the design and management of the distributed networks and infrastructures. DISSECT is intended to (1) discussing these challenges as well as future trends on security management, (2) present and discuss work-in-progress security-related research on cutting-edge technologies, and (3) strengthening collaboration and research ties among peers.
