The complex structure of networks, middleware, agents, P2P applications and ubiquitous computing for commercial, personal, communal and public use, brought forth the advent of information society in the cyberspace. However the system poses new and diverse threats to the world. It is imperative for the security researchers to look into the issues from an interdisciplinary perspective. We invite authors to contribute papers addressing the topics: from traditional theory and tools on security to up-to-date issues. Conference Scope Papers may present theory, applications or practical experiences on topics including, but not limited to: - Fundamental Tools for Information Security - Network and Distributed Systems Security - Privacy Enhancing Technology - Secure Living and Working Environments - Security in Commerce and Government - Security Management - Software and System Security - Protection of Critical Infrastructures - Testing, Verification and Certification - Law, Policy, Ethics and Related Technologies Paper submission Submitted papers must be original, unpublished, and not submitted to another conference or journal for consideration of publication. Papers must be written in English and be fully anonymous with no author names, affiliations, acknowledgements or obvious references. They should be at the maximum of 16 pages in total, in standard LNCS format (except for author names and affiliations). Papers should be sufficiently intelligible and self contained without appendices so that PC members can review papers without them. Accepted papers will be presented at the workshop and published in the book of proceedings. At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register and participate in the workshop in Kyoto to present the paper. Proceedings will be published in a special volume of Springer LNCS. Papers must be submitted in electronic form through the web. Web site for the electronic submission is now available at http://www.iwsec.org/submission.html . Submissions not meeting the submission guidelines risk rejection without consideration of their merits. Kyoto Late October is one of the best seasons to visit Japan, and the organizers are most pleased to host the conference in the city of Kyoto, where the tradition and modernity exist in harmony. While modern buildings line the main streets, the city maintains the serenity of an ancient capitol. Recognized by UNESCO as the World Cultural Heritage, the city is filled with ancient temples and beautiful gardens. For the visitors from outside Japan, Kyoto is easily accessible from Kansai Airport. --- Important dates: - Submission of papers : April 14, 2006 (GMT) - Notification to authors : June 13, 2006 (GMT) - Camera-ready due : July 3, 2006 (GMT) Contact to: info@iwsec.org --- Committees Conference General co-Chairs: Yuko Murayama, Iwate Prefectural University, Japan Shinichi Kawamura, Toshiba Corporation, Japan Advisory Committee: Norihisa Doi, Chuo University, Japan Akira Hayashi, Kanazawa Institute of Technology, Japan Hideki Imai, The University of Tokyo, Japan Guenter Mueller, University of Freiburg, Germany Eiji Okamoto, University of Tsukuba, Japan Ryoichi Sasaki, Tokyo Denki University, Japan Shigeo Tsujii, Institute of Information Security, Japan Programme Committee co-Chairs: Hiroshi Yoshiura, University of Electro-Communications, Japan Kouichi Sakurai, Kyushu University, Japan Kai Rannenberg, Goethe University Frankfurt, Germany Local Organizing Committee co-Chairs: Tetsutaro UEHARA, Kyoto University, JAPAN Masakatsu MORII, Kobe University, JAPAN Program Committee: Thomas Berson, Anagram Labs, USA Bob Blakley, Texas A&M University, USA Soon Ae Chun, City University of New York, USA George Davida, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, USA Hiroshi Doi, Institute of Information Security, Japan Paul Dowland, University of Plymouth, UK Isao Echizen, Hitachi, Ltd., Japan Jan Eloff, University of Pretoria, South Africa Steven Furnell, University of Plymouth, UK Soichi Furuya, Hitachi, Ltd., Japan Dieter Gollmann, TU Harburg, Germany Dimitris Gritzalis, Athens University of Economics & Business, Greece Sushil Jajodia, George Mason Universit, USA Shinichi Kawamura, Toshiba Corporation, Japan Angelos Keromytis, Columbia University, USA Hiroaki Kikuchi, Tokai University, Japan Kwangjo Kim, Information and Communications University, Korea Seungjoo Kim, Sungkyunkwan University, Korea Michiharu Kudo, IBM Japan, Japan Xuejia Lai, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China Kwok-Yan Lam, Tsinghua University, China Dong-Hoon Lee, Korea University, Korea William List, Firm Wm.
