CALL FOR PAPERS
Information Security Governance is to establish a framework to drive
implementation of effective information security strategies in organizations
involving risk management, reporting, and accountability. Recent changes in
business environment such as outsourcing, global supply chain, and cross
organizational collaborations is forcing users to access and retrieve
business data across organizational boundaries. This is making data
governance in enterprise intractable. In addition, since emerging IT
infrastructure such as cloud computing calls for storing enormous amount of
confidential and sensitive information, it is imperative that these data
must be appropriately handled according to the agreements. Those new
disruptive trends will greatly change the notions of the information
security governance calling for more fine-grained, data-centric, and
risk-adjusted governance models with the innovative implementation
technologies.
We seek to bring together researchers and practitioners who are working
on the problems and the technology of governance for security, risk
management, and the compliance verification. Topics include, but are
not limited to:
- Formal governance models
- Data governance, identity governance and IT governance
- Governance architecture and implementation
- Information provenance, accountability and transparency
- Continuous monitoring and auditing
- Formal audit models
- Maturity models for security governance
- Evidence-based reasoning for governance
- Security risk metrics, quantification and management
- Security incident exchange and evaluation
- Security event monitoring and correlation
- Policy-based compliance verification
- Governance standards
