With the explosive growth of data exchange and the availability of access to services over the Web, the "Trusted Information" requirement is more and more an issue to providers and users of these services. Addressing this security issue, this volume is divided into 11 parts covering the essentials of information security technologies, including application-related topics, and issues relating to application development and deployment: security protocols; smart card; network security and intrusion detection; trusted platforms; eSociety; TTP management and PKI; secure workflow environment; secure group communications; risk management; security policies; and trusted system design and management. This book comprises the proceedings of the 16th International Conference on Information Security (Sec'01), which was sponsored by the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) and organized by IFIP Technical Committee 11. The conference was held in June 2000 in Paris, France.
