The Internet Society
2001 Network and Distributed System Security Symposium
(NDSS'01)
February 7-9, 2001
Catamaran Resort, San Diego, California
IMPORTANT DATES
Paper Submission due: August 2, 2000
Author Notification: September 27, 2000
Camera-ready final papers due: October 31, 2000
GOAL:
This symposium will foster information exchange among researchers
and practioners of network and distributed system security
services. The intended audience includes those who are interested
in the practical aspects of network and distributed system security,
focusing on actual system design and implementation, rather than
theory. A major goal of the symposium is to encourage and enable
the Internet community to apply, deploy, and advance the state of
available security technology. The proceedings of the symposium
will be published by the Internet Society.
Submissions are solicited for, but are not limited to, the following
topics:
* Secure Electronic Commerce: e.g., payment, barter, EDI,
notarization/timestamping, endorsement and licensing.
* Intellectual Property Protection: protocols, schemas,
implementations, metering, watermarking, other forms of rights
management.
* Implementation, deployment and management of network security
policies.
* Integrating Security in Internet protocols: routing, naming,
TCP/IP, multicast, network management, and the Web.
* Attack-resistant protocols and services.
* Special problems and case studies: e.g., interplay and tradeoffs
between security and efficiency, usability, reliability and cost.
* Security for collaborative applications and services: tele- and
video-conferencing, groupwork, etc.
* Fundamental services: authentication, data integrity,
confidentiality, authorization, non-repudiation, and availability.
* Supporting mechanisms and APIs: key management and certification,
revocation, audit trails and accountability.
* Public Key Infrastructure.
* Integrating security services with system and application security
facilities and protocols: e.g., message handling, file
transport/access, directories, time synchronization, database
management, boot services, mobile computing.
* Security for emerging technologies: sensor networks, specialized
testbeds, wireless/mobile (and ad hoc) networks, personal
communication systems, and large heterogeneous distributed systems.
* Intrusion Avoidance, Detection, and Response: systems, experiences
and architectures.
* Network Perimeter Controls: firewalls, packet filters, application
gateways.
* Virtual Private Networks.
BEST PAPER AWARD:
There will be a best paper award again this year. The award will
be presented at the symposium to the authors of the best overall
paper as selected by the Program Committee.
SUBMISSIONS:
The Program Committee invites both technical papers and panel
proposals. Technical papers should be at most 20 pages long. Panel
proposals should be at most two pages and should describe the
topic, identify the panel chair, explain the format of the panel,
and list three to four potential panelists. Technical papers will
appear in the proceedings. A description of each panel will appear
in the proceedings, and may - at the discretion of the panel chair
- include written position statements from the panelists.
Each submission must contain a separate title page with the type
of submission (paper or panel), the title or topic, the names of
the author(s), organizational affiliation(s), telephone and FAX
numbers, postal addresses, e-mail addresses, and must specify the
contact author in case of multi-author submissions. The names of
authors, affiliations, and other identifying information should
appear only on the separate title page. Submissions must be
received by August 2, 2000, and must be made via electronically
in either PostScript or ASCII format. If the Committee is unable
to print a PostScript submission, a hardcopy will be requested.
Therefore, PostScript submissions must arrive well before the
deadline.
Submission information can be found at
http://www.isoc.org/ndss01/cfp. Dates, final call for papers,
advance program, and registration information will be available
soon at http://www.isoc.org/ndss01.
Each submission will be acknowledged by e-mail. If acknowledgment
is not received within seven days, please contact the program
Co-chairs as indicated below. Authors and panelists will be
notified of acceptance by September 27, 2000. Instructions for
preparing camera-ready copy for the proceedings will be sent at
that time. The camera-ready copy must be received by October 31,
2000.
