OVERVIEW

 

During the past two decades, information security technology developments have been mainly concerned with intrusion detection to prevent unauthorized attacks from outside the network. 

This includes hacking, virus propagation, spyware and more. However, according to a recent Gartner Research Report, information leaks have drastically increased from insiders who are legally authorized to access corporate information. 

 

The unauthorized leak of critical or proprietary information can cause significant damage to corporate image and reputation, perhaps even weakening its competitiveness in the marketplace. On a larger scale, government and public sectors may suffer competitive loss to other nations due to an internal intelligence breach. While the leaking of critical information by insiders has a lower public profile than that of viruses and hacker attacks, the financial impact and loss can be just as devastating.

 

The objective of this workshop is to showcase the most recent challenges and advances

in security and cryptography technologies and management systems for preventing information breaches by insiders. The workshop promotes state-of-the-art research, surveys and case analyses of practical significance.  Physical, managerial, and technical countermeasures will be covered in the context of an integrated security management system that protects critical cyber-infrastructure against unauthorized internal attack.

 

We expect that this workshop will be a trigger for further research and technology improvements related to this important subject.

AUTHOR INSTRUCTION

 

Authors are invited to submit original papers:

they must not substantially duplicate work that any of the authors have published elsewhere

or have submitted in parallel to any other conferences that have proceedings.

 

The submission of contributions to MIST 2014 must occur through
the workshop submission system:
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=mist14

 

The submission file is in PDF or PS file format produced via

the Easychair Latex Class file (US letter size)

[available at http://jowua.yolasite.com/resources/easychair.zip]

 

Each paper should be 10-15 pages long based on the Easychair style.

Submission of a paper implies that should the paper be accepted, at least one of the authors will register and present the paper at the workshop.

 

 

All papers will be published in the following journal:

Journal of Internet Services and Information Security (JISIS)

- ISSN (print): 2182-2069, ISSN (on-line): 2182-2077

INVITED TALK

 

Title: Characterizing the Insider Problem

Invited Speaker: Dr. Matt Bishop (Professor, UC Davis, USA)

 

¼³¸í: Bishop_head.jpg Matt Bishop received his Ph.D. in computer science from Purdue University, where he specialized in computer security, in 1984. He was a research scientist at the Research Institute of Advanced Computer Science and was on the faculty at Dartmouth College before joining the Department of Computer Science at the University of California at Davis. His main research area is the analysis of vulnerabilities in computer systems, including modeling them, building tools to detect vulnerabilities, and ameliorating or eliminating them. This includes detecting and handling all types of malicious logic. He is active in the areas of network security, the study of denial of service attacks and defenses, policy modeling, software assurance testing, and formal modeling of access controls. Currently, he is studying the nature of insider threats as technical problems and how to harden processes to inhibit such attacks. He also works in electronic and Internet voting, and was one of the two principle investigators of the California Top-to-Bottom Review, which performed a technical review of all electronic voting systems certified in the State of California. He is active in information assurance education. His textbook, Computer Security: Art and Science, was published in December 2002 by Addison-Wesley Professional. He also teaches software engineering, machine architecture, operating systems, programming, and (of course) computer security.
