[Infovis] VizSec Workshop @ IEEE VIS 2013

[Sophie Engle]

VizSec will be held in Atlanta GA, USA on October 14, 2013. VizSec
brings together researchers and practitioners in information
visualization and security to address the specific needs of the cyber
security community through new and insightful visualization
techniques. VizSec will be held as a workshop at IEEE VIS.

# Call for Papers #

Full papers offering novel contributions in security visualization are
solicited. Papers may present techniques, applications, practical
experience, theory, analysis, or experiments and evaluations. We
encourage papers on technologies and methods that promise to improve
cyber security practices, including, but not limited to:

- Situational awareness / understanding
- Incident handling including triage, exploration, correlation, and response
- Computer forensics
- Recording and reporting results of investigation
- Reverse engineering and malware analysis
- Multiple data source analysis
- Analyzing information requirements for computer network defense
- Evaluation / User testing of VizSec systems
- Criteria for assessing the effectiveness of cyber security
visualizations (whether from a security goal perspective or a human
factors perspective)
- Modeling system and network behavior
- Modeling attacker and defender behavior
- Studying risk and impact of cyber attacks
- Predicting future attacks or targets
- Security metrics and education
- Software security
- Mobile application security
- Social networking privacy and security
- Cyber intelligence
- Human factors in cyber security

Accepted papers will appear in the ACM Digital Library as part of the
ACM International Conference Proceedings Series.
