The Fourth International Workshop on Graphical Models for Security
Santa Barbara, CA, USA - August 21, 2017
http://gramsec.uni.lu
Co-located with CSF 2017
LNCS proceedings confirmed
SCOPE
Graphical security models provide an intuitive but systematic approach
to analyze security weaknesses of systems and to evaluate potential
protection measures. Cyber security researchers, as well as security
professionals from industry and government, have proposed various
graphical security modeling schemes. Such models are used to capture
different security facets (digital, physical, and social) and address a
range of challenges including vulnerability assessment, risk analysis,
defense analysis, automated defensing, secure services composition,
policy validation and verification. The objective of the GraMSec
workshop is to contribute to the development of well-founded graphical
security models, efficient algorithms for their analysis, as well as
methodologies for their practical usage.
TOPICS
The workshop seeks submissions from academia, industry, and government
presenting novel research on all theoretical and practical aspects of
graphical models for security. The topics of the workshop include, but
are not limited to:
• Graphical models for threat modeling and analysis
• Graphical models for risk analysis and management
• Graphical models for requirements analysis and management
• Textual and graphical representation for system, organizational, and
business security
• Visual security modeling and analysis of socio-technical and
cyber-physical systems
• Graphical security modeling for cyber situational awareness
• Graphical models supporting the security by design paradigm
• Methods for quantitative and qualitative analysis of graphical
security models
• Formal semantics and verification of graphical security models
• Methods for (semi-)automatic generation of graphical security models
• Enhancement and/or optimization of existing graphical security models
• Scalable evaluation of graphical security models
• Evaluation algorithms for graphical security models
• Dynamic update of graphical security models
• Game theoretical approaches to graphical security modeling
• Attack trees, attack graphs and their variants
• Stochastic Petri nets, Markov chains, and Bayesian networks for security
• UML-based models and other graphical modeling approaches for security
• Software tools for graphical security modeling and analysis
• Case studies and experience reports on the use of graphical security
modeling paradigm
INVITED SPEAKER
To be decided.
PAPER SUBMISSION
We solicit two types of submissions:
• Regular papers (up to 15 pages, excluding the bibliography and
well-marked appendices)
describing original and unpublished work within the scope of the workshop.
• Short papers (up to 7 pages, excluding the bibliography and
well-marked appendices)
describing original and unpublished work in progress.
The reviewers are not required to read the appendices, so the papers
should be intelligible without them. All submissions must be prepared
using the LNCS style:
http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-793341-0
Each paper will undergo a thorough review process. All accepted (regular
and short) papers will be included in the workshop's post-proceedings.
The GraMSec 2017 post-proceedings will be published in the Lecture Notes
in Computer Science (LNCS) series of Springer. Submissions should be
made using the GraMSec 2017 EasyChair web site:
