> Last Call For Participation - RAID 98
>
> (also available at http://www.zurich.ibm.com/~dac/RAID98)
>
> First International Workshop on the Recent Advances in Intrusion
> Detection
>
> September 14-15, 1998 Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium
>
> We solicit your participation in the first International Workshop on the
> Recent Advances in Intrusion Detection (RAID 98).
>
> This workshop, the first in an anticipated annual series, will bring
> together leading figures from academia, government, and industry to talk
> about the current state of intrusion detection technologies and paradigms
> from the research and commercial perspectives.
>
> Research into and development of automated intrusion detection systems
> (IDS) has been under way for nearly 10 years. By now a number of systems
> have been deployed in the commercial or government arenas, but all are
> limited in what they do. At the same time, the numerous research and
> prototype systems developed have been more engineering than scientific
> efforts, with scant quantitative performance figures. As we survey the
> field of automated intrusion detection, we are faced with many questions:
>
> 1. What research questions have yet to be answered (or even
> asked) about IDS?
> 2. What are the open challenges, limitations, and fundamental
> concerns about present intrusion detection methodologies?
> 3. What metrics can we use to measure IDS performance and thus
> compare different systems and methodologies? These
> measurements should highlight the successes and expose the
> limitations of current IDS approaches.
> 4. What factors are inhibiting transfer of research ideas into
> functional deployed systems? How can those be addressed?
> 5. What is the role of a deployed IDS? How should or can it fit in
> with other security systems?
> 6. What are the typical IDS operating environments? What can be
> done to configure IDS to unique operating environments?
> 7. What are the challenges for IDS in very large environments, such
> as the Internet?
> 8. Is it time to contemplate IDS standards? What are the advantages
> and disadvantages of standardizing components of IDS?
> What forums (e.g., IETF, ISO) would be appropriate for
> pursuing such standards?
> 9. What are the problems of turning the results of intrusion
> detection tools into legally reliable evidence? What are the
> problems of admissibility and of courtroom presentation?
>
> We invite proposals and panels that explore these questions or any other
> aspect of automated intrusion detection. We especially solicit proposals
> and panels that address:
>
> 1. New results related to intrusion detection methodologies and
> technologies.
> 2. Innovative ways of thinking about intrusion detection; for
> example, the applicability of R&D in the fields of survivable
> and/or dependable systems, data mining, etc.
> 3. User experiences and lessons learned from fielded intrusion
> detection systems.
> 4. IDS for emerging computer environments (e.g., Java, CORBA, and
> NT).
> 5. Commercial intrusion detection systems.
>
> We have scheduled RAID 98 immediately before ESORICS 98, at the same time
> as CARDIS 98, and at the same location as both of these conferences. This
> provides a unique opportunity for the members of these distinct, yet
> related, communities to participate in all these events and meet and share
> ideas during joined organized external events.

> SUBMISSIONS
> ***********
>
> The program committee invites proposals for both technical and general
> interest talks and panels.
>
> Each talk or panel submission must contain:
>
> 1) A separate title page with:
> The type of submission (talk or panel);
> The title or topic; and
> The name(s) of the speaker or panel chair and probable
> panelists, with their organizational affiliation(s), telephone
> and FAX numbers, postal address, and Internet electronic mail
> address.
> 2) A brief biography of each participant.
> 3) The time desired for the talk or panel.
>
> Talk proposals must also include an abstract that is a maximum of 600
> words in length. Papers are not required, but if included as an addendum,
> will be used as supplementary information for the evaluation of the talk
> proposal. The program committee will allocate each accepted presenter
> either a 15 or 30-minute slot for the talk, based on the complexity and
> interest of the proposed topic and the wishes of the speaker. The
> presenter will be informed the slot length when notified of acceptance.
>
> Panel proposals must also include a description that is a maximum of 300
> words, the format of the presentation, and short rationale for the panel.
> The program committee will allocate accepted panel sessions one to
> two-hour time slots, based on the complexity and interest of the proposed
> topic, the number of panelists, and the wishes of the panel chair. The
> panel chair will be informed the slot length when notified of acceptance.
>
> All proposals must be in English. Plan to give all panels and talks in
> English.
>
> We must receive all proposals before June 15, 1998. We strongly prefer
> they be submitted by e-mail to  . Various formats
> (ASCII, postscript, Word, WordPro, Framemaker, and LaTex) are acceptable.
> If necessary, hardcopy proposals may be sent to:
>

> Global Security Analysis Lab
> IBM Zurich Research Laboratory
> Saeumerstrasse 4
> CH-8803 Rueschlikon
