The 9th Colloquium for Information Systems Security Education http://www.ncisse.org/
6-10 June, 2005 - Georgia Tech Campus, Atlanta, Georgia, USA This colloquium, the ninth in an ongoing annual series, will bring together leading figures from academia, government, and industry to address the national need for security and assurance of our information and communications infrastructure. The Colloquium for Information Systems Security Education (The Colloquium) is established to serve as a living body to bring government, industry, and academia together to meet those challenges. This goal requires both an information-literate work force that is aware of its vulnerability as well as a cadre of information professionals that are knowledgeable of the recognized "best practices" available in information security and information assurance. The colloquium solicits papers from practitioners, students, educators, and researchers. The papers should discuss course or lab development, INFOSEC curricula, standards, best practices, existing or emerging programs, trends, and future vision, as well as related issues. This includes the following general topics: • Assessment of need (e.g. how many information security workers/ researchers/ faculty are needed?) • Integrating information assurance topics in existing graduate or undergraduate curricula • Experiences with course or laboratory development • Alignment of curriculum with existing information assurance education standards • Emerging programs or centers in information assurance • Best practices • Vision for the future We particularly encourage papers that discuss tools, demonstrations, case studies, course modules, shareware, and worked examples that participants (and others) can use to help educate people in computer security. Papers reporting work in progress are also welcomed, especially if enough information to evaluate the work will be available at the time of the colloquium. Proceedings All papers will be published in a proceedings with ISBN. Submissions Please see the submission guideline site for detailed information on format and other requirements.
