(3) Submission is now available at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=mist2016 IMPORTANT DATES ------------------------------------- - Submission Deadline: July 27, 2016 - Authors Notification: September 10, 2016 - Author Registration: September 20, 2016 - Final Manuscript: September 20, 2016 (hard deadline) 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. TOPICS (not limited to) ------------------------ -Theoretical foundations and algorithms for addressing insider threats -Insider threat assessment and modeling -Security and cryptography technologies to prevent, detect and predict insider threats -Cryptographic protocols against insider threats -Validating the trustworthiness of staff -Post-insider threat incident analysis -Data breach modeling and mitigation techniques -Registration, authentication and identification -Certification and authorization -Database security -Device control system -Digital forensic system -Fraud detection -Network access control system -Intrusion detection -Keyboard information security -Information security governance -Information security management systems -Risk assessment and management -Log collection and analysis -Trust management -IT compliance (audit) -Continuous auditing -Corporate ethics, accountability and integrity -Decision-making modeling and process WORKSHOP ORGANIZATION ------------------------------------- - General Co-Chairs Ilsun You (Soonchunhyang University, South Korea) Elisa Bertino (Purdue University, USA) Program Committee Members ------------------------------------- - Ioannis Agrafiotis (Oxford University, UK) - Joonsang Baek (Khalifa Univ. of Sci., Tech. and Research, UAE) - Matt Bishop (UC Davis, USA) - Will Casey (Carnegie Mellon University, USA) - William R.

The submission of contributions to MIST 2016 must occur through the workshop submission system: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=mist2016 Submissions must be at most 12 pages in double-column ACM format (http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/ proceedings-templates) including the bibliography and well-marked appendices. MIST 2016 also welcomes short submissions of up to 4 pages including bibliography and well-marked appendices. Submissions must be anonymized and avoid obvious self-references. Only PDF files will be accepted. Submissions not meeting these guidelines risk rejection without consideration of their merits. Each accepted paper must be presented by an author, who will have to be registered by the early-bird registration deadline.
