PRELIMINARY CALL FOR PAPERS

WfSAC 2011: Workshop on Workflow Security Audit and Certification
<http://www.telematik.uni-freiburg.de/wfsac>

Co-located with the 9th Conf. on Business Process Management
<http://bpm2011.isima.fr/>, Clermont-Ferrand, France
========================================================================

Despite the growing demand for compliant business processes, security
and privacy incidents caused by flawed workflow specifications are
still soaring.  Certification as a means to provably attest workflows'
adherence to security properties and auditing to detect violations
happening at runtime are essential instruments to achieve reliably
secure process-aware information systems.  WfSAC brings together
researchers working on well-founded methods for workflow security
audit and certification and industry applying these methods in
practical cases.  WfSAC welcomes contributions with a
multidisciplinary character such as economic, legal, and
standardization aspects.

Topics of interest include:

Access control		    Analysis of workflow models
Information flow control    Non-repudiation
Meta-models for analysis    Security requirements specification
Workflow similarity	    Workflow transformation
Business provenance	    Log analysis and strategies
Continuous audit	    Cloud/service computing
Process mining		    Workflow forensics
Legal aspects		    Economic aspects
Certification standards	    Case studies
