> Sponsored by Purdue University CERIAS, in cooperation with North Carolina

> University eCommerce Learning Center, ACM SIGSOFT & SIGSAC (pending) &

> Security requirements for new eCommerce and 
> Internet  applications  exceed  the
> traditional requirements for network security and traditional software 
> systems.
> Security requirements are more complex and 
> increasingly  critical.   Informally
> stated and de facto requirements are often of critical importance in the 
> design
> and operation of these systems, but are frequently not taken into 
> account.  The
> second  symposium  on requirements engineering for information security 
> invites
> papers 
> on  a  diversity  of  topics,  particularly  ones  that  point  out  new
> directions. Theoretical, experimental, and experience papers are all welcome.
>
> WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
> SREIS provides researchers and practitioners from 
> various  disciplines  with  a
> highly  interactive forum to discuss security and privacy-related 
> requirements.
> Specifically, we encourage attendance from those in the fields 
> of  requirements
> engineering, software engineering, information systems, information and 
> network
> security and trusted systems as 
> well  as  those  interested  in  approaches  to
> analyzing,  specifying,  and  testing  requirements  to  increase  the 
> level of
> security provided to users interacting with 
> pervasive  commerce,  research  and
> government  systems.   Some  travel  funding  for  graduate  students 
> will  be
> available.
>
> FORMAT
> The symposium will consist 
> of  a  keynote  address,  presentations  of  papers,
> panels,  and tutorials.  The goal is to stimulate interaction and thought 
> about
> intersecting areas of requirements engineering, security, and policy research.
>
> TOPICS OF INTEREST INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO:
> - solutions to known RE problems as applied to security and privacy
> - RE for confidentiality, integrity, and availability
> - industrial problem statements
> - generalizations from individual industrial experiences
> - RE for trusted Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) systems
> - empirical studies of industrial RE practice
> - capture and expression of informal and ad hoc requirements
> - managing conflicting requirements of operational effectiveness and security
> - methods for the specification and analysis of security requirements
> - methods for ensuring compliance between requirements and policies
