    			      Call for Papers
    			 First IEEE International
    		      Information Assurance Workshop
    		 March 24th, 2003 --- Darmstadt, Germany
    
    			     Sponsored by the
    	 IEEE Computer Society Task Force on Information Assurance
    			  in cooperation with the
    	ACM Special Interest Group on Security, Audit, and Control
    
      Background
    
    Information Assurance (IA) represents a relatively new research area which
    as yet lacks formal definition and is dependent on many underlying
    Information Technology areas to succeed. At present, many efforts to effect
    IA focus narrowly on one or another of these underlying technologies. The
    need for a comprehensive, systems approach to IA is required if IA is to
    succeed. This workshop serves as an open forum to discuss IA perspectives
    on the underlying technologies, to review the definition of IA, and to
    promote development of IA technology and standards impacting real-world
    needs such as in Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP).
    
      Overview
    
    The IEEE Task Force on Information Assurance is sponsoring a workshop on
    information assurance in cooperation with the ACM SIGSAC on research and
    experience in information assurance. The workshop seeks submissions from
    academia and industry presenting novel research on all theoretical and
    practical aspects of IA; possible topics include, but are not limited to
    the following:
    
      - Information Warfare and Operations 
      - Network Security 
      - Operating System Security 
      - Storage Security 
      - Intrusion Detection, Prediction, and Countermeasures 
      - Insider Attack Countermeasures 
      - Information Sharing in Coalition Settings 
      - Security Models 
      - Survivability and Resilient Systems 
      - Formal Methods for Security 
      - CCITSE Experience and Methodology 
      - IA Standardization Approaches 
      - Specification, Design, Development, and Deployment of IA Mechanisms 
    
    Papers with a systems perspective are especially welcome. In addition to
    the dissemination of new research, another goal of the workshop is to bring
    together researchers and practicioners from both governmental and civilian
    areas. While observers are welcome, overall attendance is limited. Please
    contact the workshop chairs if you wish to attend as an observer.
    
    Accepted papers will be published by IEEE Press in a proceedings volume.

    Submissions must not substantially duplicate work that any of the authors
    has published elsewhere or has submitted in parallel to any other
    conference or workshop with proceedings. The paper must list all authors
    and their affiliates on a separate sheet; in case of multiple authors, the
    contact author must be indicated. The paper itself must be blinded. It
    should begin with a title, a short abstract, and a list of key words, and
    its introduction should summarize the contributions of the paper at a level
    appropriate for a non-specialist reader.  Submissions should have at most
    15 pages excluding the bibliography and appendices (using 10pt body text
    and two-column layout), and at most 20 pages total. Authors are responsible
    for obtaining appropriate clearances; authors of accepted papers will be
    asked to sign IEEE copyright release forms. Submissions not meeting these
    guidelines risk rejection without consideration of their merits.
    
    Submissions and questions should be sent electronically to
