This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Workshop on Information Security Applications, WISA 2006, held in Jeju Island, Korea in August 2006. Coverage in the 30 revised full papers includes public key crypto applications and virus protection, cyber indication and intrusion detection, biometrics and security trust management, secure software and systems, smart cards and secure hardware, and mobile security.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 26th Annual International Conference on the Theory and Applications of Cryptographic Techniques, EUROCRYPT 2007, held in Barcelona, Spain in May 2007. The 33 revised full papers address all current foundational, theoretical and research aspects of cryptology, cryptography, and cryptanalysis as well as advanced applications.

Since the mid 1990s, data hiding has been proposed as an enabling technology for securing multimedia communication, and is now used in various applications including broadcast monitoring, movie fingerprinting, steganography, video indexing and retrieval, and image authentication. Data hiding and cryptographic techniques are often combined to complement each other, thus triggering the development of a new research field of multimedia security. Besides, two related disciplines, steganalysis and data forensics, are increasingly attracting researchers and becoming another new research field of...

This volume constitutes the refereed post-proceedings of the 8th International Workshop on Information Hiding held in Alexandria, Virginia, in July 2006. Twenty-five carefully reviewed full papers are organized into topical sections covering watermarking, information hiding and networking, data hiding in unusual content, fundamentals, software protection, steganalysis, steganography, and subliminal channels.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 7th International Symposium on Privacy Enhancing Technologies, PET 2007, held in conjunction with WOTE 2007, the IAVoSS Workshop on Trustworthy Elections. The papers cover design and realization of privacy services for the internet and other communication networks and present novel research on all theoretical and practical aspects of privacy technologies, as well as experimental studies of fielded systems.

The increasing relevance of security to real-life applications, such as electronic commerce, is attested by the fast-growing number of research groups, events, conferences, and summer schools that are studying it. This book presents thoroughly revised versions of eight tutorial lectures given by leading researchers during two International Schools on Foundations of Security Analysis and Design, FOSAD 2006/2007, held in Bertinoro, Italy, in September 2006 and September 2007.

*Addresses a very topical subject of great concern to security, general IT and business management
*Provides a step-by-step approach to managing the consequences of and recovering from the loss of sensitive data.
*Gathers in a single place all information...

Organizations with computer networks, Web sites, and employees carrying laptops and Blackberries face an array of security challenges. Among other things, they need to keep unauthorized people out of the network, thwart Web site hackers, and keep data safe from prying eyes or criminal hands. This book provides a high-level overview of these challenges and more. But it is not for the hard-core IT security engineer who works full time on networks. Instead, it is aimed at the nontechnical executive with responsibility for ensuring that information and assets stay safe and private. Written by...

Insider Attack and Cyber Security: Beyond the Hacker defines the nature and scope of insider problems as viewed by the financial industry. This edited volume is based on the first workshop on Insider Attack and Cyber Security, IACS 2007. The workshop was a joint effort from the Information Security Departments of Columbia University and Dartmouth College.

This book sets an agenda for an ongoing research initiative to solve one of the most vexing problems encountered in security, and includes the following topics: critical IT infrastructure, insider threats,...
