The objective of this workshop is to identify things that should be done to improve our ability to detect, protect against, contain, neutralize, mitigate the effects of, and recover from cyber-terrorist attacks. Participants are sought from the computer security, electronic commerce and banking, network infrastructure, military, and counter-terrorism communities, as well as those with experience of cyber-terrorist attacks. Recommendations may suggest research and development or operational measures that can be taken. The workshop is NOT a forum for presentation of the latest security systems, protocols or algorithms. The workshop will address the strategies, framework, and infrastructure required to combine and incrementally deploy such technologies to counter the cyber-terrorist threat.

Attendance will be limited to approximately 25 participants. Participants will be selected on the basis of submitted position papers that raise issues for the workshop to discuss, identify threats or countermeasures, or propose strategies or infrastructure to counter the threat of cyber-terrorism. Position papers should be four pages or less in length. Submissions should be sent in e-mail in Word or PDF format, or as ASCII text to cyber-terrorism-ws@isi.edu

Please check the web page http://www.isi.edu/cctws for more information, including a position paper from the organizers which will be available two weeks prior to the submission deadline.
