Two volumes contain papers presented at the January 2000 conference in South Carolina. The subject is hot--how to strengthen security of network systems--and the DARPA Information Survivability program began in 1994 as a government funded response to threats to the US Department of Defense. The program's four research areas, addressed here in 32 papers from government, academia, and industry, include high confidence networking--developing protocols and services to protect the integrity of internet-based activities; high confidence computing--developing secure operating systems and computing environments); survivability of large scale systems--focusing on intrusion detection techniques; and wrappers and composition-- toolkits for integrating security and survivability functionality into legacy systems. Indexed only by author. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR.
