Cyberspace has become a critical infrastructure that is embedded in almost all other critical infrastructures and enables every movement of human society. It is thus very much in the public interest to have a safe and secure cyberspace. <br><br>In the past several years, there has been a large number of attacks in cyberspace, such as attacks on the Internet, attacks on embedded/real-time computing and control systems, and attacks on dedicated computing facilities. Many research efforts have been made to achieve cyberspace safety and security, such as blocking and limiting
the impact of compromise, enabling accountability, promoting deployment of defense systems, and deterring potential attackers and penalizing attackers. <br><br>In this context, we will focus our program on cyberspace safety and security, such as authentication, access control, availability, integrity, privacy, confidentiality, dependability and sustainability issues of cyberspace. The aim of this symposium is to provide a leading edge forum to foster interaction between researchers and developers with the cyberspace safety and security communities, and to give attendees an opportunity to network with experts in this area. The symposium will be a highly focused, professional, high quality, and social event. <br><br>In the past, CSS has been held in Melbourne, Australia (2012), Milan, Italy (2011), Chengdu, China (2009), and Sydney, Australia (2008). <br> <br><br>Scope and Interests<br><br>The CSS-13 conference will provide a forum for engineers and
scientists in academia, industry, and government to address all challenges including technical, safety, social, and legal issues related to Cyberspace Safety and Security and to present and discuss their ideas, results, work-in-progress and experience on all aspects of Cyberspace Safety and Security. Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to: <br><br>(1) Data and Applications Security<br>1. Digital Rights Management<br>2.

Submitted
papers must not substantially overlap with papers that have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a conference with proceedings. Papers must be clearly presented in English, must not exceed 15 pages (or 20 pages with the over length charge), including tables, figures, references and appendixes, in Springer LNCS Format with Portable Document Format (.pdf). Please submit your paper at https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=css2013.<br><br>Papers will be selected based on their originality, timeliness, significance, relevance, and clarity of presentation. Distinguished papers, after further revisions, will be considered for possible publication in several SCI & EI indexed special issues of prestigious international journals. The program committee will select and award two "Best Paper Awards" for this conference. By submitting a paper to the conference, authors assure that if the paper is accepted, at least one
author will attend the conference and present the paper. For no-show authors, their papers will be removed from the digital library after the conference and their affiliations will be notified.<br><br><br>Important Dates<br><br>(1) Paper Submission Due: June 15, 2013 <br>(2) Notification of Decision: August 15, 2013<br>(3) Camera-ready Papers Due: September 15, 2013<br> <br><br>Steering Co-Chairs<br><br>Yang Xiang, Deakin University, Australia<br>Wanlei Zhou, Deakin University, Australia<br><br> <br>General Co-Chairs<br><br>Guojun Wang, Central South University, China<br>Vijay Varadharajan, Macquarie University, Australia<br>Gregorio Martinez, University of Murcia, Spain<br> <br><br>Program Co-Chairs<br><br>Indrakshi Ray, Colorado State University, USA<br>Dengguo Feng, Institute of Software, Chinese Academy of Sciences, China<br>Muttukrishnan Rajarajan, City University
