The Center for Secure Cyberspace (CSC), a collaborative effort of
Louisiana Tech and Louisiana State Universities, announces the
upcoming Cyberspace Research Workshop.  This event will be held on
Monday, June 15, 2009 at the Shreveport Convention Center in
Shreveport, Louisiana, in conjunction with the 2009 AFCS (Air Force
Cyberspace Symposium).  The workshop will provide a venue to discuss
emerging technologies, share ideas, and create opportunities for
researchers and practitioners in various areas of cyber security.

=====================================================================
             Theme: "Cyber Security in the 21st Century"

Cyberspace is a medium that is rampant with attackers.  Due to the
largely reactive mindset that governs many strategies designed to deal
with the onslaught of attacks, we often find ourselves in a defensive
position compelled to play "catch-up."  More proactive
methods of cyber defense are thus essential for effective interception
of attackers.  Moreover, maintaining a state of knowledge with respect
to the cyber environment becomes necessary in order to provide overall
situational awareness.  Undoubtedly, a diverse set of topics fall
within the cyber security realm; the purpose of this workshop is to
share work related to a wide range of areas within the cyber security
realm.

Topics (including but not limited to):
   o Strategic Cyber Defense
   o Global Cyber Situational Understanding
   o Sensor Placement
   o Hardware and Software Anti-Tamper
   o The Psychology of Cyber Security
   o Malware and Anti-Malware Technologies

Interested authors are encouraged to submit their papers/extended
abstracts related to the workshop's theme and topics. The workshop is
divided into two tracks:
   o A general refereed paper track.
     Papers of five to ten pages should be submitted.
   o A "work-in-progress" track.
     Extended abstracts of three to five pages should be submitted.
     This track is designed to introduce interesting new or ongoing
     work for discussion and feedback.

All submissions should be e-mailed by April 15, 2009, to Jean Gourd
(jgourd@latech.edu) with "2009 CSC Workshop" in the subject line.
See workshop website for further details.
