CALL FOR PAPERS RAID 2008 11th International Symposium on Recent Advances in Intrusion Detection September 15-17, 2008 MIT, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA http://www.ll.mit.edu/IST/RAID2008/ ================================================================ Topics: ------- This symposium, the 11th in an annual series, brings together leading researchers and practitioners from academia, government, and industry to discuss issues and technologies related to intrusion detection and defense. The Recent Advances in Intrusion Detection (RAID) International Symposium series furthers advances in intrusion defense by promoting the exchange of ideas in a broad range of topics. As in previous years, all topics related to intrusion detection, prevention and defense systems and technologies are within scope, including but not limited to the following: * Network and host intrusion detection and prevention * Anomaly and specification-based approaches * IDS cooperation and event correlation * Malware prevention, detection, analysis and containment * Web application security * Insider attack detection * Intrusion response, tolerance, and self protection * Operational experience and limitations of current approaches * Intrusion detection assessment and benchmarking * Attacks against IDS including DoS, evasion, and IDS discovery * Formal models, analysis, and standards * Deception systems and honeypots * Vulnerability analysis, risk assessment, and forensics * Adversarial machine learning for security * Visualization techniques * Special environments, including mobile and sensor networks * High-performance intrusion detection * Legal, social, and privacy issues * Network exfiltration detection * Botnet analysis, detection, and mitigation Important Dates: ---------------- Paper submission deadline: April 4, 2008 Paper acceptance or rejection: June 6, 2008 Final paper camera ready copy: June 16, 2008 Poster abstract submission deadline: June 18, 2008 Poster acceptance or rejection: June 27, 2008 Early Bird registration closes: August 1, 2008 Submissions: ------------ RAID 2008 invites two types of submissions: 1. Full papers presenting mature research results or summarizing operational experience protecting or monitoring large real-world networks. Papers can be 10-20 pages long and, if accepted, they will be presented and included in the RAID 2008 proceedings published by Springer Verlag in its Lecture Notes in Computer Science (http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/index.html) series. Papers must be formatted according to the instructions provided by Springer Verlag (http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html), and include an abstract and a list of keywords. 2. Posters describing innovative ideas not mature enough for a full paper and works in progress. A two-page poster abstract formatted as a full paper with an abstract must be submitted. If accepted, it will be published in the proceedings and the poster will be presented. All submissions (papers and poster abstracts) must be submitted electronically; details will be provided on the conference web site. Papers should list all authors and their affiliations; in case of multiple authors, the contact author must be indicated (RAID does not require anonymized submissions). For accepted papers, it is required that at least one of the authors attends the conference to present the paper. Further questions on the submission process may be sent to the program chair. Submissions must not substantially duplicate work that any of the authors has published elsewhere or has submitted in parallel to a journal or to any other conference or workshop with proceedings. Simultaneous submission of the same work to multiple venues, submission of previously published work, and plagiarism constitute dishonesty or fraud. RAID, like other scientific and technical conferences and journals, prohibits these practices and may, on the recommendation of the program chair, take action against authors who have committed them.
