results,
surveying works and industrial experiences describing significant
security
advances in the following (non-exclusive) areas of Critical
Information
Infrastructures for which we plan to have sessions:

- Threats and Attacks Modeling

Furthermore, the following topics are within the scope of CRITIS?07:

- Continuity of Services and Resiliency
- Dependable Infrastructure Communications
- Internet-based remote control
- Forensic Techniques
- Incident Response
- Network Survivability
- Trust Models in Critical Scenarios
- Security Logistics
