Information assurance and security has become an important research issue in
networked and distributed information sharing environments. Finding
effective ways to protect information systems, networks and sensitive data
within the critical information infrastructure is challenging even with the
most advanced technology and trained professionals. The International
Conference on Information Assurance and Security (IAS) aims to bring
together researchers, practitioners, developers, and policy makers involved
in multiple disciplines of information security and assurance to exchange
ideas and to learn the latest development in this important field.

The proceedings of IAS09 will be published by IEEE Computer Society and will
be indexed by EI and ISTP.
