4th workshop on Secure Network Protocols (NPSec 2008)

In conjunction with the 16th IEEE International Conference on Network Protocols 
Orlando, Florida, October 19-22, 2008

Scope:

The 4th workshop on Secure Network Protocols (NPSec 2008) is a one-day event 
held in conjunction with ICNP 2008.  NPSec focuses on two general areas.  
The first focus is on the development and analysis of secure or hardened 
protocols for the operation (establishment and maintenance) of network 
infrastructure, including such targets as secure multidomain, ad hoc, sensor 
or overlay networks, or other related target areas.  This can include new 
protocols, enhancements to existing protocols, protocol analysis, and new 
attacks on existing protocols.  The second focus is on employing such secure 
network protocols to create or enhance network applications. Examples include 
collaborative firewalls, incentive strategies for multiparty networks, and 
deployment strategies to enable secure applications.   

NPSec 2008 particularly welcomes new ideas on security in the context of 
future Internet design, such as architectural considerations for future 
Internet security and new primitives for supporting secure network protocol 
and application design.  

Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

1. security in future Internet architectures
 - role of security in future architectures
 - integrating security into future protocols and applications
2. secure and/or resilient network protocols, e.g.:
- internetworking/routing 
- MANETs
- LANs and WLANs 
- mobile/cellular data networks
- p2p and other overlay networks
- federated trust systems
- sensor networks
3. vulnerabilities of existing protocols and applications (both theoretical and case studies), including attacks
4. key distribution/management
5. intrusion detection and response
6. incentive systems for p2p systems and MANETs routing
7. secure protocol configuration and deployment
