The conference will cover research on all theoretical and practical aspects related to network and system security, such as authentication, access control, availability, integrity, privacy, confidentiality, dependability and sustainability of computer networks and systems. The aim of NSS is to provide a leading edge forum to foster interaction between researchers and developers with the network and system security communities, and to give attendees an opportunity to interact with experts in academia, industry, and governments.</div><div><br></div><div>NSS is an annual international conference covering research in network and system security. The conference seeks submissions from academia, industry, and government presenting novel research on all theoretical and practical aspects of network security, privacy, applications security, and system security. Papers describing case studies, implementation experiences, and lessons learned are also encouraged. </div><div>Topics of interest include but are not limited to: </div><div><br></div><div>- Active Defense Systems </div><div>- Adaptive Defense Systems</div><div>- Applied Cryptography </div><div>- Analysis, Benchmark of Security Systems</div><div>- Authentication </div><div>- Biometric Security</div><div>- Complex Systems Security </div><div>- Database and System Security</div><div>- Data Protection </div><div>- Data/System Integrity</div><div>- Distributed Access Control </div><div>- Distributed Attack Systems</div><div>- Denial-of-Service </div><div>- High Performance Network Virtualization</div><div>- Hardware Security </div><div>- High Performance Security Systems</div><div>- Identity Management </div><div>- Intelligent Defense Systems </div><div>- Insider Threats </div><div>- Intellectual Property Rights Protection </div><div>- Internet and Network Forensics </div><div>- Intrusion Detection and Prevention </div><div>- Key Distribution and Management </div><div>- Large-scale Attacks and Defense </div><div>- Malware </div><div>- Network Resiliency </div><div>- Network Security </div><div>- RFID Security and Privacy </div><div>- Security Architectures </div><div>- Security for Critical Infrastructures</div><div>- Security in P2P systems </div><div>- Security in Cloud and Grid Systems </div><div>- Security in E-Commerce </div><div>- Security in Pervasive/Ubiquitous Computing</div><div>- Security and Privacy in Smart Grid </div><div>- Security and Privacy in Wireless Networks</div><div>- Security Policy </div><div>- Secure Mobile Agents and Mobile Code </div><div>- Security Theory and Tools </div><div>- Standards and Assurance Methods </div><div>- Trusted Computing </div><div>- Trust Management</div><div>- World Wide Web Security</div><div> </div><div><br></div><div>*PAST HISTORY*</div><div><br></div><div>NSS 2015 is the next event in a series of highly successful events of Network and System Security.
