Exposing Grand Challenges in Information Security & Assurance

摘要：在过去的十年中，计算在商业、政府、研究和个人生活中的普及取得了巨大的增长。然而，随着我们对这些技术的依赖程度越来越高，对这些技术以及由其管理的信息和处理的威胁也越来越多。由该提案支持的会议将寻求确定信息安全和信息保障领域的“重大挑战”，或者更广泛地说，在网络信任领域。该会议是2002年6月“信息系统重大研究挑战”会议开始的一系列关于计算机科学和工程重大研究挑战的会议之一。会议将包括广泛的观点，并将产生一份报告，列出一个动态的研究议程，这将导致信息系统/信息内部管理取得实质性进展。预计该议程不仅对希望建立长期研究议程的机构和公司有价值，而且对研究和学术界帮助培育新项目也有价值。

Proposal Number: 0335324TITLE: Exposing Grand Challenges in Information Security and AssurancePI: Eugene Spafford Abstract:The last decade has seen a huge growth in the spread of computing in commerce, government, research and personal life. However, as our dependence on these technologies has grown, there have also been an increasing number of threats to this same technology, and to the information and processing managed by it. The conference to be supported by this proposal will seek to identify "grand challenges" in the areas of information security and information assurance, or more broadly in Cyber Trust. The conference is one of a series of conferences on grand research challenges in computer science and engineering that began in June 2002 with the "Grand Research Challenges in Information Systems" conference. A broad range of viewpoints will be included at the conference, which will product a report laying out a dynamic research agenda that will lead to substantive progress in IS/IA. The agenda is expected to be of value not only to agencies and companies wishing to establish a long-term research agenda, but to the research and academic communities to help seed new projects.
