First International Workshop on CRITICAL INFORMATION INFRASTRUCTURES SECURITY (CRITIS'06)

- in conjunction with ISC'06 -

August 30 - September 2, 2006 Samos Island, Greece

CRITIS'06: http://critis06.lcc.uma.es ISC'06: http://www.icsd.aegean.gr/ISC06

---------------------- Workshop scope ---------------------- Key sectors of modern economies depend highly on ICT. The information flowing through the resulting technological super-infrastructure as well as the information being processed by the complex computing systems that underpin it becomes crucial because its disruption, disturbance or loss can lead to high economical, material and, sometimes, human loss. As a consequence, the security and dependability of this infrastructure becomes critical and its protection a major objective for governments, companies and the research community.

CRITIS has been born as an event that wants to bring together researchers and professionals from universities, private companies and Public Administrations interested or involved in all security-related heterogeneous aspects of Critical Information Infrastructures. We invite research papers, work-in-progress reports, R&D projects results, surveying works and industrial experiences describing significant security advances in the following (non-exclusive) areas of Critical Information Infrastructures:

- Continuity of Services - Dependable Infrastructure Communications - Early Warning Systems - Embedded Technologies Security - Incident Response - Infrastructure Interdependencies - Information Assurance - Internet-based remote control - Forensic Techniques - National and Cross Border Activities - Network Survivability - Trust Models in Critical Scenarios - Policy Management - Resilient Software - Secure Information Sharing - Security Logistics - Security Modeling and Simulation - Security Risks - Threats Analysis - Vulnerability Assessment

------------------------------------------ Instructions for paper submission ------------------------------------------ All submissions will be subjected to a thorough blind review by at least three reviewers. Papers should be up to 12 pages in English, including bibliography and well-marked appendices. Pre-proceedings will appear at the time of the conference. It is planned that additional post-proceedings will be published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series. At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register with the Workshop and present the paper.

To submit a paper, please follow the specific instructions on the Workshop website (http://critis06.lcc.uma.es). The submitted paper (in PDF or PostScript format), which should follow the template indicated by Springer (http://ww.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html), must start with a title, a short abstract, and a list of keywords. However, it should be anonymous with no author names, affiliations, acknowledgements, nor obvious references.
