The Workshop on the Economics of
Securing the Information Infrastructure
http://wesii.econinfosec.org/
October 23-24, 2006
Washington, DC
SECOND
CALL FOR PAPERS
Our information infrastructure suffers from decades-old vulnerabilities,
from the low-level algorithms that select communications routes to the
application-level services on which we are becoming increasingly
dependent. Are we investing enough to protect our infrastructure? How
can we best overcome the inevitable bootstrapping problems that
impede efforts to add security to this infrastructure? Who stands to
benefit and who stands to lose as security features are integrated
into these basic services? How can technology investment decisions
best be
presented to policymakers?
We invite infrastructure providers, developers, social scientists,
computer scientists, legal scholars, security engineers, and especially
policymakers to help address these and other related questions.
Authors of accepted papers will have the opportunity to present their
work to government and corporate policymakers. We encourage
collaborative
research from authors in multiple fields and multiple institutions.
