Proceedings of the 2017 Workshop on Automated Decision Making for Active Cyber Defense

It is our great pleasure to welcome you to SafeConfig 2015 -- the Workshop on Automated Decision Making for Active Cyber Defense. SafeConfig'15 offers a unique opportunity by bringing together researchers from academic, industry, as well as government agencies to discuss challenges, exchange experiences, and propose plans for promoting research and development for resilient cyber and cyber-physical systems. SafeConfig'15 solicits the submission of original unpublished ideas in 8-page long papers and 4-page short papers on cyber security analytics, intelligence and automation area, which includes provable synthesis, refinement, validation, and tuning of configurations parameters, such as policies and rules in order to support assurable, secure, and sustainable networked services. 
 
The call for papers attracted submissions from Asia, Europe, and the United States. SafeConfig'15 received twenty-seven submissions. We have accepted only eight of them as full papers (acceptance ratio 29.6%) and one as a short paper to be presented in this workshop, after a rigorous review process (at least 3 reviews for each paper) and discussion phase. 
 
We also encourage attendees to attend the keynote talk and the panel discussion. Dr. Wende Peters from Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory will deliver the keynote talk, "Integrated Adaptive Cyber Defense: Integration Spiral Results". This valuable and insightful talk will guide us to a better understanding of the adaptive cyber defense, which is the secure integration and automation across a diverse, changeable set of cyber defense capabilities. The panelists will discuss active cyber defense strategies for resilient infrastructure. This discussion will provide the audience with the global requirements of secure and resilient systems, current challenges, and future directions.
