ACM Special Interest Group on Supporting Group Work

 

Enterprises are increasingly dependent on their information systems to support their business and workflow activities. There is a need for universal electronic connectivity to support interaction and cooperation between multiple organizations. This makes enterprise security and confidentiality more important but more difficult to achieve, as the multiple organizations may have differences in their security policies and may have to interact via an insecure Internet. These inter-organizational enterprise systems may be very large, so tools and techniques are needed to support the specification, analysis and implementation of security.

This workshop focused on the problems and challenges relating to enterprise security in inter-organizational systems. We brought together principal players from both the internetwork and the enterprise security community, with lots of discussions.

The agenda included panels on:

  • Internet Security and IETF
    • Tatu Ylonen, SSH Communications Security - Moderator
    • Donald Eastlake III, Chair of the Sec DNS @IETF
    • Carl Ellison, CyberCash/Primary Draft Author of SPKI
    • Steve Lloyd, Entrust Technologies
    • Tim Polk, NIST/Editor of PKIX

  • Building Secure Knowledge Systems
    • Barbara Davis, Applied Knowledge Group - Moderator
    • David Ferraiolo, NIST
    • Thomas Russ, USC Information Science Institute
and paper sessions on:

  • Security Infrastructure and Management
  • Security for the Internet/Web
  • Secure Collaboration Environments
  • Role-Based Access Control

Some of the papers accepted for presentation at the workshop, as well as the working group report, will be included in the WET ICE post-proceedings, which will be published by the IEEE Computer Society Press. In addition, two of the best papers will be recommended for publication in the journal IEEE Internet Computing.
