About C&ESAR 2009

The Ministry of Defense has been organizing infosec thematic

workshops every year since 1997. These conferences

bring together information system security specialists coming

from the governmental, industrial and academic world.

The goal of C&ESAR meeting is scientific, but also didactic.

It aims at presenting a survey of a specific issue of information

system security. The audience pictures the whole ISS

community, including fundamental researchers as well as

practicing specialists and managers. The subject will be

presented from a theoretical as from a practical point of

view, while keeping a pedagogic angle in order to facilitate

understanding. Indeed, this peculiar point of view will allow

practicing specialists to get aware of theoretical and technical

breakthroughs able to help them to solve their difficulties.

But on the other hand, researchers and developers will have

the opportunity to become acquainted with some potentially

interesting real-life problems.

Wireless (or reckless??) security

This year's topic is the potential impact of wireless technologies

on Infosec. This will cover all communication technologies

from classical far field (wifi, wimax, blue tooth?) to NFC

(RFID, contactless?). The borderline between these

NFC devices and classical wireless networks seems to be

fading now, with the emerging " Internet of objects " new world.

The consequences are still to be assessed, and the traditional

opposition between security and functionality will find

a new battlefield as this seamless new world may become

even more vulnerable.

So the talks will deal with the security problems arising

from a more and more widespread use of these so-called

wireless technologies, and with their solutions.
