OVERVIEWThe 6th edition of the Workshop on Recent Advances on Intrusion Tolerance and reSilince aims to continue the collaborative discourse on the challenges of building intrusion-tolerant systems alongside innovative ideas to address them. As a technical area, Intrusion Tolerance (IT) lies at the intersection of Fault Tolerance and Computer 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. Other descriptions used for similar themed research include resilience, survivability, trustworthy systems, byzantine fault tolerance, and autonomic self-healing systems.Intrusion Tolerance (IT) starts with the premise that software-based components will always contain bugs and misconfigurations that can be discovered, exposed and enabled by the increasingly new ways in which distributed and networked computer systems are being created today. IT acknowledges that it is impossible to detect and prevent all intrusions and attacks. Intrusion tolerant systems therefore must have the means to continue to operate correctly despite attacks and intrusions, still denying the resident attacker/intruder the success they seek. For instance, an intrusion tolerant system under an attack intended to compromise system resources may actively transition non-essential services to a degraded mode in order to sustain critical services and trigger alternative recovery mechanisms. The workshop aims to provide a forum for researchers and practitioners to present designs, algorithms and architectures for intrusion tolerance, to discuss new security mechanisms or novel use of existing mechanisms, and to identify open problems or domain-specific considerations in need of further research.Information about previous editions of WRAITS can be found on the main WRAITS site.CALL FOR PAPERSAuthors are invited to submit papers to the workshop, which will be held in conjunction with the 42nd IEEE/IFIP International Conference on Dependable Systems and Networks (DSN), June 25-28, 2012. 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 of interest related to advances in intrusion-tolerant systems include, but are not limited to:* Assurance and survivability benefits of hardware and software virtualization* Assessment and evaluation of intrusion-tolerant systems* Automatic recovery and response techniques* Biologically inspired defenses* Byzantine fault tolerance* Diversity (software/hardware) and coincident failures* Defending against botnet herds;* Effective evaluation of IT systems including red teaming* Intrusion tolerance in cyber-physical systems and critical infrastructures* Intrusion-tolerant web-scale systems* Real world case studies* Security and Resilience of Service Oriented Systems* Security and resilience issues of large social computing systems (e.g., gmail and Facebook);* Security and resilience of large interconnected and critical infrastructure systems (e.g., energy grids, telecoms)* Survivability and information assurance in the Cloud* Theoretical limits/boundaries of intrusion tolerance* Threat of botnet herds and surviving themMore information about the workshop can be obtained by emailing to i.gashi

unf.eduSUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONSThe workshop will accept two formats of papers: regular papers (maximum 6 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:LaTeX PackageWord TemplateEach paper should be submitted as a single PDF file through the EasyChair submission website for WRAITS'12:https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wraits12
At least one author of an accepted paper must register at the conference and present the paper at the workshop.IMPORTANT DATESSubmission deadline: March 16, 2012Author notification: April 13, 2012Final version: May 1, 2012WORKSHOP ORGANIZERSIlir Gashi, CSR, City University London, UK O.
