***************************************************************

The "CQRE - secure networking" provides a new international
forum giving a close-up view on information security in the context
of rapidly evolving economic processes. The unprecedented
reliance on computer technology transformed the previous technical
side- issue "information security'' to a management problem
requiring decisions of strategic importance. Hence, the targeted
audience represents decision makers from government, industry,
commercial, and academic communities. If you are developing
solutions to problems relating to the protection of your country’s
information infrastructure or a commercial enterprise, consider
submitting a paper to the "CQRE - secure networking" conference.

We are looking for papers and panel discussions covering:
. electronic commerce
 - new business processes
 - secure business transactions
 - online merchandising
 - electronic payment / banking
 - innovative applications

. network security
 - virtual private networks
 - security aspects in internet utilization
 - security aspects in multimedia-
   applications
- intrusion detection systems

. legal aspects
 - digital signatures acts
 - privacy and anonymity
 - crypto regulation
 - liability

. corporate security
 - access control
 - secure teleworking
 - enterprise key management
 - IT-audit
 - risk / disaster management
 - security awareness and training
 - implementation, accreditation, and
   operation of secure systems in a
   government, business, or industry
   environment

. security technology
 - cryptography
 - public key infrastructures
 - chip card technology
 - biometrics

. trust management
 - evaluation of products and systems
 - international harmonization of security
   evaluation criterias

Any other contribution addressing the involvement of IT security in
economic processes will be welcome. Authors are invited to submit
an extended abstract of their contribution to the program chair.
The submissions should be original research results, survey
articles or ``high quality'' case studies and position papers.

and not more than 2.000 words. The extended abstracts should be in
a form suitable for anonymous review, with no author names,
affiliations, acknowledgements or obvious references. Contributions
must not be submitted in parallel to any conference or workshop
that has proceedings. Separately, an abstract of the paper with no
more than 200 words and with title, name and addresses (incl. an
E-mail address) of the authors shall be submitted. In the case of
multiple authors the contacting author must be clearly identified.

also be sent to the program chair. Panels of interest include those
that present alternative/controversial viewpoints or those that
