CALL for PAPERS

==========================

4th International Workshop on Managing Insider Security Threats (MIST 2012)

http://isyou.info/conf/mist12

November 8-9, 2012, Nishijin Plaza, Kyushu University, Fukuoka, Japan

==========================



IMPORTANT DATES

-------------------------------------

Submission Deadline: July 31, 2012

Acceptance Notification: August 31, 2012

Camera-Ready & Registration: September 30, 2012



OVERVIEW

-------------------------------------

During the past two decades, information security technology developments
have been mainly concerned with intrusion detection to prevent unauthorized
attacks from outside the network.  This includes hacking, virus
propagation, spyware and more. However, according to a recent Gartner
Research Report, information leaks have drastically increased from insiders
who are legally authorized to access corporate information.



The unauthorized leak of critical or proprietary information can cause
significant damage to corporate image and reputation, perhaps even
weakening its competitiveness in the marketplace. On a larger scale,
government and public sectors may suffer competitive loss to other nations
due to an internal intelligence breach. While the leaking of critical
information by insiders has a lower public profile than that of viruses and
hacker attacks, the financial impact and loss can be just as devastating.



The objective of this workshop is to showcase the most recent challenges
and advances in security technologies and management systems for preventing
information breaches by insiders. The workshop promotes state-of-the-art
research, surveys and case analyses of practical significance.  Physical,
managerial, and technical countermeasures will be covered in the context of
an integrated security management system that protects critical
cyber-infrastructure against unauthorized internal attack. We expect that
this workshop will be a trigger for further research and technology
improvements related to this important subject.
