This workshop aims to bring together the technologies and researchers who

share interest in the area of network and distributed system security. The

main purpose is to promote discussions of research and relevant activities

in security-related subjects. It also aims at increasing the synergy between

academic and industry professionals working in this area.

We welcome papers that address theoretical, experimental, and work

in-progress in the area of cybersecurity at the system and network levels.

Topics covered by the workshop will include, but are not limited to, the

following:

Ad hoc and sensor network security

Cryptographic algorithms and distributed digital signatures

Distributed denial of service attacks

Distributed intrusion detection and protection systems

Firewall and distributed access control

Grid computing security

Key management

Network security issues and protocols

Mobile codes security and Internet Worms

Security in e-commerce

Security in peer-to-peer and overlay networks

Security in mobile and pervasive computing

Security architectures in distributed and parallel systems

Security theory and tools in distributed and parallel systems

Video surveillance and monitoring systems

Information hiding and multimedia watermarking in distributed systems

Web content secrecy and integrity

Paper Submission

Authors are invited to submit manuscripts reporting original unpublished

research and recent developments in the topics related to the workshop.

Submitted manuscripts may not exceed 15 single-spaced pages using 12-point

size font on 8.5x11 inch pages, including figures, tables, and references.

Please use the standard 1-inch margin. Authors may submit additional

material as an appendix to their submission, but there is no guarantee that

this material will influence the review process. The final version may have

a different format and you may be asked reduce the length of your paper if

it is accepted.

We strongly encourage authors to submit papers electronically in PDF format

via EDAS. Submission of a paper should be regarded as an undertaking that,

should the paper be accepted, at least one of the authors will register and

attend the workshop to present the work.

Each submitted paper will be peer reviewed and the comments will be provided

to the authors. The accepted papers will be published in the same printed

abstract volume and CD-ROM proceedings as other workshops and the IPDPS 2009

conference by the IEEE Computer Society Press and IEEE online library.
