SREIS 2002, CFP (Raleigh NC, 10/02)

CALL FOR PAPERS, SREIS 2002


Second Symposium on


                              Requirements Engineering for Information Security


                                    Raleigh, North Carolina, October 15-16, 2002


Sponsored by Purdue University CERIAS, in cooperation with North
Carolina State University eCommerce Learning Center, ACM SIGSOFT &
SIGSAC (pending) & National Institute of Standards and Technology.


Security requirements for new eCommerce and Internet applications
exceed the traditional requirements for network security and
traditional software systems. Security requirements are more complex
and increasingly critical. Informally stated and de facto
requirements are often of critical importance in the design and
operation of these systems, but are frequently not taken into account.
The second symposium on requirements engineering for information
security invites papers on a diversity of topics, particularly ones
that point out new directions. Theoretical, experimental, and
experience papers are all welcome.


WHO SHOULD ATTEND?


SREIS provides researchers and practitioners from various disciplines
with a highly interactive forum to discuss security and
privacy-related requirements. Specifically, we encourage attendance
from those in the fields of requirements engineering, software
engineering, information systems, information and network security and
trusted systems as well as those interested in approaches to
analyzing, specifying, and testing requirements to increase the level
of security provided to users interacting with pervasive commerce,
research and government systems. Some travel funding for graduate
students will be available.


FORMAT


The symposium will consist of a keynote address, presentations of
papers, panels, and tutorials. The goal is to stimulate interaction
and thought about intersecting areas of requirements engineering,
security, and policy research.


TOPICS OF INTEREST INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO:
- solutions to known RE problems as applied to security and privacy
- RE for confidentiality, integrity, and availability
- industrial problem statements
- generalizations from individual industrial experiences
- RE for trusted Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) systems
- empirical studies of industrial RE practice
- capture and expression of informal and ad hoc requirements
- managing conflicting requirements of operational effectiveness and security
- methods for the specification and analysis of security requirements
- methods for ensuring compliance between requirements and policies

NIST NATIONAL FORUM TO FOLLOW SREIS


The SREIS will be followed by the Second Annual Government-Industry
Forum on Strategies for the Development of Security Requirements and
Security Specifications for Critical Information Technologies. The
forum, hosted by the National Institute of Standards and Technology
(NIST) will take place on October 17, 2002 from 9:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M.
