*SCOPE*


NSS is an annual international conference covering research in network and
system security. The objective of NSS'15 is to provide an opportunity for
researchers from academia, industry, and government to present novel
research on all theoretical and practical aspects of network security,
privacy, applications security, and system security.


Besides the usual presentations at the regular paper track, we are going to
organize a Work-in-Process (WiP) session on cyber  security. The WiP
session will be devoted to the presentation of new and on-going research on
cyber security, and we are especially interested in new and creative ideas
and approaches. Contributors to the WiP session will be asked to give a
short presentation of their work and prepare a poster for discussion during
the poster sessions.
