Format, extension and submission of contributions are the same
specified for PAAMS main track (http://www.paams.net/).


***** SCOPE? *****

Security is an essential issue to be covered by current information and
communication technologies, as services provided both to systems and
users must be reliable. However, most available security related
solutions mainly rely on the deployment of prevention and/or detection
schemes. This in some sense passivity of the defense system limits in
several aspects its capabilities and thus those of the overall
environment.

Given the increasing complexity of networking and communication systems
at present, proactive security solutions offer a number of benefits with
respect to passive security solutions. As such, novel and effective
proactive security related approaches are highly encouraged. Adoption of
these new technologies and methodologies will contribute to increase the
robustness of the environment by leveraging concepts such as response,
collaboration, tolerance, auto-configuration and adaptability, etc.

In this context, the goal of the WASMAS workshop is to contribute new
advances and trends in the use and deployment of agent-like security
related systems, that is schemes composed of pro-active elements with
acting capacities. It is expected that this kind of systems will be of
indubitable help for developing next generation networks, services and
systems.


***** TOPICS *****

Several main topics in the field of security and protection of
services, users, systems and infrastructures, but not limited to them,
are:

- Anti-spoofing robust solutions
- Self-protection and adaptive systems
- Collaborative authentication
- Localization and position-based security
- Non-legitimate events active detection
- Tolerance and survivability
- Auto-configurable environments
- Mobility and pro-active security
- Robust access control
- Active defenses and hacking back strategies
- Resilience against maliciousness
- Collaborative and distributed systems for security
- Defenses against collusion attacks
- Agent-based systems and RoQ
- Cybercrime prosecution schemes
- Response/Reaction mechanisms
- New proposals against DDoS events
- Low-cost security related procedures
- Active security in the cloud
- Privacy-enhanced technologies
- Strategic applications
