This event was held in hybrid mode. The 14 full papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 47 submissions. They were organized in topical sections as follows: System and Hardware Security; Symmetric Key Cryptography; Public Key Cryptography; Zero Knowledge Proofs; and Card Based Cryptography.

Provides a broad working knowledge of all the major security issues affecting today's enterprise IT activities. Multiple techniques, strategies, and applications are examined, presenting the tools to address opportunities in the field. For IT managers, network administrators, researchers, and students.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Workshop on Security, IWSEC 2011, held in Tokyo, Japan, in November 2011. The 14 revised full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 45 submissions. They address all current issues in information and computer security such as foundations of security, security in networks and ubiquitous computing systems, and security in real life applications. The papers are organized in topical sections on software protection and reliability; cryptographic protocol; pairing and identity based signature; malware detection; mathematical and symmetric cryptography; public key encryption.

The papers are organized in topical sections on subjects including Software and Multimedia security, Public-key cryptography, Network security, E-commerce and Voting, Operating systems, and Security and Information management.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Workshop on Security, IWSEC 2012, held in Fukuoka, Japan, in November 2012. The 16 revised selected papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 53 submissions. They are organized in topical sections named: implementation; encryption and key exchange; cryptanalysis; and secure protocols.

Data mining is becoming a pervasive technology in activities as diverse as using historical data to predict the success of a marketing campaign, looking for patterns in financial transactions to discover illegal activities or analyzing genome sequences. From this perspective, it was just a matter of time for the discipline to reach the important area of computer security. Applications Of Data Mining In Computer Security presents a collection of research efforts on the use of data mining in computer security. Applications Of Data Mining In Computer Security concentrates heavily on the use of data mining in the area of intrusion detection. The reason for this is twofold. First, the volume of data dealing with both network and host activity is so large that it makes it an ideal candidate for using data mining techniques. Second, intrusion detection is an extremely critical activity. This book also addresses the application of data mining to computer forensics. This is a crucial area that seeks to address the needs of law enforcement in analyzing the digital evidence.

Insider Threats in Cyber Security is a cutting edge text presenting IT and non-IT facets of insider threats together. This volume brings together a critical mass of well-established worldwide researchers, and provides a unique multidisciplinary overview. Monica van Huystee, Senior Policy Advisor at MCI, Ontario, Canada comments "The book will be a must read, so of course I’ll need a copy." Insider Threats in Cyber Security covers all aspects of insider threats, from motivation to mitigation. It includes how to monitor insider threats (and what to monitor for), how to mitigate insider threats, and related topics and case studies. Insider Threats in Cyber Security is intended for a professional audience composed of the military, government policy makers and banking; financing companies focusing on the Secure Cyberspace industry. This book is also suitable for advanced-level students and researchers in computer science as a secondary text or reference book.
