I am  sending you the final call  for papers for Raid  2000. Please note
that the deadline for full papers (included in the proceedings published
by  Springer Verlag) is  March 31st.   I would  appreciate if  you could
distribute it as widely as possible. Thanks for your help.

		Last Call For Papers - RAID 2000

		Third International Symposium on the
		Recent Advances in Intrusion Detection

		Dates: October 2-4, 2000
                Toulouse, France
		in conjunction with ESORICS 2000

		an html version of this CFP is available at
                http://www.raid-symposium.org/Raid2000/cfp2000.html


This  symposium, the  third  in  an ongoing  annual  series, will  bring
together  leading figures  from  academia, government,  and industry  to
discuss  state-of-the-art intrusion  detection  technologies and  issues
from the  research and commercial perspectives.  RAID  2000 will welcome
full papers in  addition to extended abstracts and  panel proposals, and
has organized  peer review to publish  hardcopy proceedings. Proceedings
will be  published by Springer Verlag  in the Lecture  Notes in Computer
Science series (http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/index.html).


The RAID International Symposium  series is intended to further progress
in intrusion  detection by  promoting the exchange  of ideas in  a broad
range of topics among researchers, system developers and users. RAID'98,
held  in  Louvain-la-Neuve,  Belgium,   was  hosted  by  the  Universite
Catholique  de Louvain and  welcomed 130  participants, with  nearly 50%
from outside Europe, reflecting the international nature of the meeting.
RAID'99, held in Purdue, Indiana, was hosted by CERIAS and welcomed more
than 180 participants from academia, government and industry.


RAID 2000  is being locally organized  by ONERA in  Toulouse, France, in
conjunction  with ESORICS  2000  (http://www.cert.fr/esorics2000/).  The
program  committee  invites submission  of  both  technical and  general
interest papers and panels  from those interested in formally presenting
their  ideas   during  the  symposium.    Regarding  paper  submissions,
submissions  to  RAID 2000  can  be either  a  full-length  paper or  an
extended  abstract.  Full papers  are intended  for the  presentation of
mature  research  results, while  extended  abstracts  are intended  for
work-in-progress presentations.   It is expected that more  time will be
allocated to full paper presentations. Panel submissions are also sought
in the  same areas.  This year,  we are emphasizing  the following topic
areas:


o Assessing, measuring and classifying intrusion-detection systems:
  - Accuracy and reliability measurements, requirements, and technologies
  - Benchmarking techniques and technologies
  - Relations to Risk Assessment and Risk Management Plans
  - Quantitative assessment of IDSes and IDS combinations
  - Suitability of IDSes as a countermeasure to insider misuse

o IDS in High Performance and Real-Time Environments:
  - Large-scale/enterprise IDS
  - High-Speed networks
  - Managing high-volume data
  - Highly distributed and heterogeneous environments
  - Deployment/cooperation of IDSes in multiple-organisation environments
  - Mission-critical intrusion-detection systems

o Vulnerabilities and Attacks
  - New vulnerability or attack databases
  - Vulnerability or attack taxonomies
  - Using vulnerability databases
  - IDS Security issues and solutions

o IDS Integration
   - IDS interoperability Standards and Standardization
   - Integration with the system/network management framework
   - Combining different "styles" of IDS

o Innovative Approaches
   - Adaptive IDS solutions
   - Survivability and Dependability
   - Data mining, intelligent agents
   - New IDS methodologies and technologies
   - Automated responses
   - Combining IDS and system/network management
   - Intrusion-detection using application logs

o Practical Considerations
   - Case studies
   - IDS in heterogeneous environments
   - Unique/emerging IDS operating environments
   - Legal issues (IDS reports as "evidence")
   - Commercial intrusion detection systems and their directions
   - Real-time versus Post-mortem IDS
   - IDS integration with business process

SUBMISSIONS
===========

Full papers,  extended abstracts  and panels which  fall into  the topic
areas  outlined above are  particularly welcome,  although contributions
outside those topics may also be of interest.

Full papers  must be original contributions, not  published or submitted
to other conferences.   Full papers must be limited  to 6000 words, full
page  figures being counted  as 300  words.  Each  paper must  include a
short abstract  and a list of  keywords.  Authors are  invited to submit
full   papers   electronically   in   postscript  or   PDF,   as   email
attachements. Authors  should follow the instructions  given by Springer
Verlag     (http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html)    for    the
preparation of the  manuscript. The email (in ASCII)  should contain the
title of  the paper, author  name(s), affiliations, mailing  address and
topic  category addressed  in the  paper (if  appropriate).   Full paper
submissions  will be published  in the  RAID proceedings.   Deadline for
submitting full papers is March 31, 2000.
