We will focus our program on issues related to Network and System Security, such as authentication, access control, availability, integrity, privacy, confidentiality, dependability and sustainability of computer networks and systems. The aim of this conference is to provide a leading edge forum to foster interaction between researchers and developers with the network and system security communities, and to give attendees an opportunity to interact with experts in academia, industry and governments. NSS 2009 is the next event in a series of highly successful events of Network and System Security (NSS), previously held as IFIP International Workshop on Network and System Security: NSS 2008 (Shanghai, China, October 2008) and NSS 2007 (Dalian, China, September 2007), respectively. NSS 2009 is in technical co-sponsorship with the IEEE and the IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Scalable Computing. NSS 2009 will be held in Gold Coast, Australia. Gold Coast is renowned for its sunny subtropical climate, popular surfing beaches, expansive waterway and canal systems, a skyline dominated by high-rise apartment buildings, active nightlife and wide variety of tourist attractions. Topics include, but not limited to: * Active Defense Systems * Adaptive Defense Systems * Benchmark, Analysis and Evaluation of Security Systems * Distributed Access Control and Trust Management * Distributed Attack Systems and Mechanisms * Distributed Intrusion Detection/Prevention Systems * Denial-of-Service Attacks and Countermeasures * High Performance Security Systems * Identity Management and Authentication * Implementation, Deployment and Management of Security Systems * Intelligent Defense Systems * Internet and Network Forensics * Large-scale Attacks and Defense * RFID Security and Privacy * Security Architectures in Distributed Network Systems * Security for Critical Infrastructures * Security for P2P systems and Grid Systems * Security in E-Commerce * Security and Privacy in Wireless Networks * Secure Mobile Agents and Mobile Code * Security Protocols * Security Simulation and Tools * Security Theory and Tools * Standards and Assurance Methods * Trusted Computing * Viruses, Worms, and Other Malicious Code * World Wide Web Security << Call for Workshops >> ------------------------ NSS 2009 will hold multiple workshops co-located with the main conference.

We invite submissions of papers that contribute to our understanding of how to collect or analyze Internet measurements, or give insight into Internet structure and behavior. Examples of relevant topics are: - Internet traffic analysis - Internet structure and topology characteristics - Internet performance measurements - Measurement-based network management such as traffic engineering - Inter-domain and intra-domain routing - Network applications such as multimedia streaming, gaming and on-line social networks - Measurements of content distribution, peer-to-peer, overlay, and social networks - Data-centric issues, including anonymization, querying, and storage - Measurement-based inference of network properties - Design of monitoring systems, sampling methods, signal processing methods - Network anomaly detection - Network security threats and countermeasures - Software tools and environments in support of measurement - Measurement-based assessment of simulation/testbeds - Measurement-based workload generation - Measurement-based modeling - Reappraisal of previous measurement findings - Internet-oriented wireless, and mobility measurement Papers that do not in some fashion relate to measuring Internet properties are out of scope. Authors can contact the Program Chairs at imc09tpchairs at comp.lancs.ac.uk for clarification if they are unsure whether their paper is in scope. Ethical standards for measurement must be considered by all IMC authors. In particular, authors must be aware of and conform to acceptable use policies for individual domains that are probed or monitored, data privacy and anonymity for all personally identifiable information, and etiquette for using shared measurement data (see Allman and Paxson, IMC '07). If applicable, authors are also urged to notify parties of security flaws in their products or services in advance of publication. Adherence to ethical standards for measurement will be a criteria for all submissions and violations will be grounds for rejection.
