Abstract

Providing high performance computing and security is a challenging task. Internet, operating systems and distributed environments currently suffer from poor security support and cannot resist common attacks. Adding security measures typically degrade performance. This workshop addresses relationships between security, high performance and distributed computing systems in four directions. First, it considers how to add security properties (authentication, confidentiality, integrity, non–repudiation, access control) to high performance computing systems and how they can be formally verified both at design–time (formal verification) and at run–time (run–time verification). In this case, safety properties can also be addressed, such as availability and fault tolerance for high performance computing systems. Second, it addresses vulnerabilities and security threats (and remediation) targeting HPC, grid, cloud and mobile environments. Third, it covers how to use HPC systems to solve security problems. For instance, a grid computation can break an encryption code, a cluster can support high performance intrusion detection or a distributed formal verification system. More generally, this topic addresses every efficient use of a high performance computing systems to improve security. Fourth, it investigates the tradeoffs between maintaining high performance and achieving security in computing systems and solutions to balance the two objectives. In all these directions, various formal analyses, as well as performance analyses or monitoring techniques can be conducted to show the efficiency of a security infrastructure. The workshop seeks submissions from academia and industry presenting novel research on all theoretical and practical aspects of security related to HPC, distributed, network and mobile environments, as well as case studies and implementation experiences. Papers should have practical relevance to the construction, evaluation, application, or operation of secure systems. The SHPCS Workshop topics of interest include (but are not limited to) the following: Access Control Accounting and Audit Anonymity Applied Cryptography Authentication Commercial and Industry Security Cryptographic Protocols Data and Application Security Data/System Integrity Database Security Digital Rights Management Formal Verification of Secure Systems Identity Management Inference/Controlled Disclosure Information Warfare Intellectual Property Protection Intrusion and Attack Detection Intrusion and Attack Response Key Management Mobile Security Privacy–Enhancing Technology Secure Networking Secure System Design Security Monitoring & Management Security for Mobile Code Security for Specific Domains (e.g., E–Government, E–Business, P2P) Security in IT Outsourcing Security in Wireless Networks Security in Untrusted & Adversarial Environments and Systems Security in Operating Systems Security Location Services Security of Grid and Cluster Architectures Security Visualization Smartcards Trust Management Policies Trust Models Web Security Web Services Security SHPCS welcomes submission of papers describing: Experimental work to measure existing systems and applications Industrial experience relevant to the Workshop’s themes Theoretical work on specific new models Software and hardware platforms from the angle of security and performance Short papers describing ongoing work. Submitted papers should highlight their application or relevance for HPCS computing.
