Proceedings of 2007 Cyber Security and Information Infrastructure Workshop

Workshop goal was to challenge, establish and debate a far-reaching discussion that broadly and comprehensively outlines a strategy for cyber security that is founded on sound technologies for better understanding of existing and emerging threats; advances in insider threat detection, deterrence, mitigation and threat elimination; ensuring security, survivability and dependability of critical infrastructures; guaranteeing availability of time-critical scalably secure systems; observable measurable certifiable security effects, rather than hypothesized causes; quantitative metrics that enable us to specify security requirements, formulate security claims, and certify security properties; solutions that provide a measure of assurance against known and unknown (though perhaps pre-modeled) threats; mission fulfillment, whether or not security violations have taken place rather than mitigating all violations indiscriminately.
