International Symposium on Engineering Secure Software and Systems (ESSoS)

#1107525: International Symposium on Engineering Secure Software and Systems (ESSoS)

Description:	IT security is becoming an increasingly interdisciplinary subject. For example, it is insufficient to simply deploy new security measures but one must pay careful attention to correctly integrate the security measures into existing software. Such an approach involves redesigning and engineering of software to ensure that the built-in security policy is effective in practice. Many security venues put little focus on topics related to software engineering, while many software-engineering venues lack appreciation for more complex topics in software security. ESSoS thus strives to be a venue that welcomes exactly such contributions that are at the border of IT security and software engineering. The program committee is particularly chosen to encompass a broad range of expertise, ranging from software security over software engineering to human subjects such as usable security. Goal and setup The goal of this symposium, which will be the ninth in the series, is to bring together researchers and practitioners to advance the state of the art and practice in secure software engineering. Being one of the few conference-level events dedicated to this topic, it explicitly aims to bridge the software engineering and security engineering communities, and promote cross-fertilization. The symposium will feature two days of technical program including two keynote presentations. In addition to academic papers, the symposium encourages submission of high-quality, informative industrial experience papers about successes and failures in secure software engineering and the lessons learned. Furthermore, the symposium also accepts short idea papers that crisply describe a promising direction, approach, or insight.
