5th SETOP International Workshop on
Autonomous and Spontaneous Security
Pisa, Italy September 10-12, 2012

Venue:  The workshop will be held at in the beautiful city of Pisa,
(Italy), in conjunction with the 17th annual European research event in
Computer Security (ESORICS 2012) symposium. The workshop is structured
in two tracks: a research track and an industrial track.

Workshop Website:   http://sesar.dti.unimi.it/SETOP2012/

Scope: Security and reliability have become a major concern for
service-oriented applications as well as for communications systems and
networks.  Prospective authors are encouraged to submit papers
addressing the automated configuration of security policies in the
context of dynamic, heterogeneous and mobile environments. Aiming at
secure and interoperable networks and systems, major challenges related
to policy conflict detection and resolution must be addressed.  Papers
related to autonomous assessment and intrusion mitigation are
particularly invited for submission.

Topics: The SETOP Workshop seeks submissions that present research
results on all aspects related to spontaneous and autonomous security.
Submissions by PhD students are encouraged. Topics of interest include,
but are not limited to the following:

•                 Security policy deployment
•                 Self evaluation of risk and impact
•                 Distributed intrusion detection
•                 Autonomous and spontaneous response
•                 Trust establishment & lightweight cryptography
•                 Selfish behavior and collaboration enforcement
•                 Security in autonomous ad hoc networks
•                 Security in sensor & RFID networks
•                 Security of Next Generation Networks
•                 Security in Cloud Computing
•                 Security of Service Oriented Architectures
•                 Security of opportunistic networks
•                 Privacy in self-organized networks
•                 Secure localization & context aware ubiquitous computing
•                 Secure interoperability and negotiation
•                 Self-organization in secure routing
•                 Identity management, modeling and validation of security

Submissions Guidelines for the research track: Papers should be at most
15 pages (using 11-point font), excluding the bibliography and
well-marked appendices. Committee members are not required to read the
appendices.

Submissions Guidelines for the industrial track: Papers should be at
most 10 pages, Emphasis should be made on practical rather than
scientific challenges in implementing autonomous and spontaneous
security. Live or recorded demonstrations of prototype solutions are
encouraged.

Submissions Process: Proceedings will be published by Springer in the
Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series. The submitted paper (in
PDF format) should follow the template indicated by Springer
(seehttp://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html). Submissions must be
written in English and submitted at
http://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=setop2012. All papers will be
refereed. Accepted papers should be presented at the Workshop. At least
one author of each paper must register to the workshop and present the
paper.
