* Computational Intelligence in Information Assurance and Security  *

Nadia Nedjah, Ajith Abraham, Luiza de Macedo Mourelle (Eds.)

The global economic infrastructure is becoming increasingly dependent
upon information technology, with computer and communication
technology being essential and vital components of Government
facilities, power plant systems, medical infrastructures, financial
centres and military installations to name a few. Finding effective
ways to protect information systems, networks and sensitive data
within the critical information infrastructure is challenging even
with the most advanced technology and trained professionals.

This volume is intended to be published by Springer and targeted to
provide the academic and industrial community a medium for presenting
original research and applications related to information assurance
and security using computational intelligence techniques. Authors are
invited to submit (see instructions for authors) their original and
unpublished work that communicates current research on information
assurance and security regarding both the theoretical and
methodological aspects, as well as various applications in solving
real world information security problems. The topics of interest
include, but not limited to:

Authentication
Data protection
Computer forensics
Internet and web security
Information and data integrity
Intrusion detection
Information warfare and cyber-attacks
Security models and architectures
Secure software engineering
Cryptography and coding
Cryptographic and E-commerce protocols
Agent and mobile code security
Security in sensor networks
Biometrics
Key management
Wireless and ad hoc network security
Information security management
Database and system security

The time schedule for this publication is as follows:
