We invite you to submit papers to the Workshop on Cyber Security Experimentation and Test (CSET'09) on August 10, 2009 in Montreal, Canada. The CSET'09 workshop is co-located with the USENIX Security Symposium. CSET '09 is bringing together researchers and testbed developers to share their experiences and define a forward-looking agenda for the development of scientific, realistic evaluation approaches for security threats and defenses; it provides an important community forum for the exploration of transformational advances in the field of cyber security experimentation and test. While we particularly invite papers that deal with security experimentation, we are also interested in papers that address general testbed/ experiment issues that have implications on security experimentation such as: traffic and topology generation, large-scale experiment support, experiment automation, etc. We are further interested in educational efforts that involve security experimentation. Please see workshop URL for a more detailed listing of topics. Financial assistance is expected to be available for promising students to help defray costs of attending this workshop, present their papers, and become more integrated into this important scientific community. We believe that attendance to present papers and to interact with researchers and practitioners in Cyber Security Experimentation and Test is an important component of students' education and professional development. Moreover, students' presence at this workshop will enrich and broaden the range of workshop activities. Procedures for applying for a student travel grant are forthcoming.
