OVERVIEW
The 3rd Workshop on Recent Advances on Intrusion-Tolerant Systems aims
to foster the understanding of and collaborative discourse on the
challenges of building intrusion tolerant systems and innovative ideas
to address them. As a technical area, Intrusion Tolerance is at the
intersection of Fault Tolerance and Security. As a practical
discipline, it brings in additional topics ranging from software
engineering, adaptive system development to reasoning, coordination and
control of distributed resources and mechanisms, as well as validation
and evaluation of security and survivability claims. The workshop will
be especially interested in "practical intrusion-tolerant systems": How
are threats to business- and mission-critical information systems
handled today? Are emerging intrusion tolerance techniques being used?
What mechanisms are finding more use and why? What factors may be
discouraging mainstream adoption? How to build information systems that
are inherently resilient to intrusions? What new techniques are in the
horizon? How to evaluate and test the dependability and security of new
techniques? The workshop will provide a forum for researchers and
practitioners to present architectures for intrusion-tolerant systems,
new defense mechanisms, recent results, discuss open problems that still
need research, and survivability challenge problems in specific
application and domain areas.
Authors are invited to submit papers to the workshop, which will be held
in conjunction with the 39th IEEE/IFIP International Conference on
Dependable Systems and Networks (DSN), June 29 - July 2, 2009. Papers
can present ongoing work and/or speculative/futuristic ideas.
Experimental results or other forms of validation are especially
encouraged. The workshop papers will be published in a supplementary
volume of the conference proceedings.
TOPICS
Topics of interest related to intrusion tolerance (IT) include, but are
not limited to:
* automatic recovery and response techniques
* hardware and software virtualization for IT
* leveraging social computing networks for resiliency
* threat of botnet herds and surviving them
* survivability and information assurance in the Cloud
* use of Byzantine fault-tolerant algorithms in IT
* biologically inspired defenses
* diversity and failure independence
* evaluation of IT systems
* theoretical limits of IT
* real world case studies
More information about the workshop can be obtained by emailing to
wraits09_AT_di.fc.ul.pt
SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
The workshop will accept two formats of papers: regular papers (maximum
5 pages) and position papers (maximum 2 pages). Position papers allow
researchers to present more speculative/futuristic ideas to stimulate
discussion and further work. Papers have to adhere to the IEEE Computer
Society camera-ready 8.5"x11" two-column camera-ready format, like
regular DSN papers. Instructions about how to submit papers can be found
on the web site: http://wraits09.di.fc.ul.pt/ . More information about
the workshop can be obtained by email to the same address.
At least one author of an accepted paper must register at the conference
and present the paper at the workshop.
IMPORTANT DATES
Submission deadline: March 16, 2009
Author notification: April 20, 2009
Final version: May 11, 2009
