Co-located with CSF 2018
In conjunction with FLoC 2018
SCOPE
The use of graphical security models to represent and analyse the
security of systems has gained an increasing research attention over the
last two decades. Formal methods and computer security researchers, as
well as security professionals from the industry and government, have
proposed various graphical security models, metrics, and measurements.
Graphical models are used to capture different security facets and
address a range of challenges including security assessment, automated
defence, secure services composition, security policy validation, and
verification. For example, attack graphs, attack trees, attack–defence
trees, and attack countermeasure trees represent possible ways of
attacking and defending a system while misuse cases and mal-activity
diagrams capture threats and abusive behaviour of users.
TOPICS
This year, we are particularly keen to encourage excellent submissions
related, but not restricted, to the following broad headings:
• Graph representations: mathematical, conceptual, and implemented tools
for describing and reasoning about security
• Logical approaches: formal logical tools for representing and
reasoning about graphs and their use as modelling tools in security
• Machine learning: modelling and reasoning about the role of big data
and machine learning in security operations
• Networks in national security: terrorist networks, counter-terrorism
networks; safety in national infrastructure (e.g., utilities and
transportation)
• Risk analysis and management: models of risk management in business
and organizational architectures
• Social networks: using and reasoning about social graphs, network
analysis, network protocols, social mapping, sociometry.
Preference will be given to papers likely to stimulate high-quality
debate at the Workshop.
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well-marked appendices) describing original and unpublished work within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well-marked appendices) describing original and unpublished work in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 2018 post-proceedings will be published in the Lecture Notes
in Computer Science (LNCS) series of Springer. Submissions should be
made using the GraMSec 2018 EasyChair website:
