| Description |
Information assurance and security has become an important research issue in networked and distributed information sharing environments. Finding effective ways to protect information systems, networks and sensitive data within the critical information infrastructure is challenging even with the most advanced technology and trained professionals. The International Symposium on Information Assurance and Security (IAS) aims to bring together researchers, practitioners, developers, and policy makers involved in multiple disciplines of information security and assurance to exchange ideas and to learn the latest development in this important field.

Paper Submission
Papers should be original and contain contributions of theoretical, experimental or application nature, or be unique experience reports. Papers must be submitted no later than April 5, 2008 April 21, 2008 and electronic submission in PDF or Word is required. The page limit for a full-length paper is 6 pages. Short papers describing novel research visions, work-in-progress or less mature results are also welcome, with the limit of 4 pages.
All submissions should be in the IEEE 8.5" x 11" two-column format. Papers should contain up to 5 keywords. Papers will be evaluated for originality, significance, clarity, and soundness, and will be reviewed by at least three independent reviewers.
Conference Proceedings
Accepted papers will be published by IEEE Computer Society Press. Selected papers presented at the conference will be considered for publication in a special issue of the international Journal of Information Assurance and Security (JIAS).
Awards
The IAS’08 Program Committee will select one winner for the Best Paper Award (all regular papers are eligible) and one winner for the Best Student Paper Award (to be eligible, the student must be the sole author of the paper or the first author and primary contributor). A cover letter to the General Chair/Program Chair must identify the paper as a candidate for this competition at the time of submission. The award-winning papers will be considered for publication in the international Journal of Information Assurance and Security (JIAS).
