The Fourth European Conference on Information Warfare and Security
(ECIW) is an opportunity for academics, practitioners and consultants
from Europe and elsewhere who are involved in the study, management,
development and implementation of systems and concepts to combat
information warfare or to improve information systems security to come
together and exchange ideas. There are several strong strands of
research and interest that are developing in the area including the
understanding of threats and risks to information systems, the
development of a strong security culture, as well as incident detection
and post incident investigation. This conference is continuing to
establish itself as a key event for individuals working in the field
from around the world .

The advisory group for the conference invites submissions of papers on
both the theory and practice of all aspects of Information Warfare and
Security. The conference in July 2005 is seeking qualitative,
experience-based and quantitative papers as well as case studies and
reports of work in progress from academics, information systems
practitioners, consultants and government departments. Topics may
include, but are not limited to, e-Intelligence/counter-intelligence,
Perception management, Information warfare theory, Electro-magnetic
pulse weapons, Information, computer and network security, Cryptography,
Physical security, Security policy, Information warfare policy,
Information warfare techniques, Hacking, Infra-structure warfare,
National security policy, Corporate defence mechanisms, Security for

Submission>
Full papers: Only required on acceptance of abstract. The full papers
(between 3000-5000 words) will be double blind reviewed before being
accepted for presentation at the conference and for publication in the
conference proceedings. Submission date will be no later than 28 March
2005.

Important Information:
The selection panel of the conference committee will consider all
abstracts received by the submission deadline to ensure that the
proposed paper is relevant to the Conference.  The authors of abstracts,
which describe a relevant paper, will receive a notification of abstract
acceptance. All full papers will be double-blind reviewed by members of
the conference committee to ensure an adequate standard, that the
proposed subject of their abstract has been followed, that the paper is
of a suitable length, the standard of English is adequate and the paper
is appropriately referenced. Papers that are accepted will be published
in the conference proceedings providing at least one author registers
and presents the work at the Conference (see the registration section of
the conference website for more information about registration). Due to
the large number of papers expected for this conference, the committee
only allows an author to present one paper. Therefore if multiple papers
are accepted for presentation different co-authors need to present each
paper.

Abstract submission deadline: 31 January 2005
Notification of abstract acceptance:  14 February 2005
Full paper due for review: 28 March 2005
