Quality of Protection: Security Measurements and Metrics is an edited volume based on the Quality of Protection Workshop in Milano, Italy (September 2005). This volume discusses how security research can progress towards quality of protection in security comparable to quality of service in networking and software measurements, and metrics in empirical software engineering. Information security in the business setting has matured in the last few decades. Standards such as IS017799, the Common Criteria (ISO15408), and a number of industry certifications and risk analysis methodologies have raised the bar for good security solutions from a business perspective.Designed for a professional audience composed of researchers and practitioners in industry, Quality of Protection: Security Measurements and Metrics is also suitable for advanced-level students in computer science.

ESORICS, the European Symposium On Research In Computer Security, is the leading research-oriented conference on the theory and practice of computer - curity in Europe. The aim of ESORICS is to further the progress of research in computer security by establishing a European forum for bringing together - searchersinthisarea,bypromotingtheexchangeofideaswithsystemdevelopers and by encouraging links with researchers in related areas. ESORICS is coordinated by an independent steering committee. In the past it took place every two years at various locations throughout Europe. Starting this year, it will take place annually. ESORICS 2003 was organized by Gjøvik University College, and took place in Gjøvik, Norway, October 13–15, 2003. The program committee received 114 submissions, originating from 26 co- tries on all continents. Half the papers originated in Europe (57). The most dominant countries were: UK (16), USA (14), Germany (6), South Korea (6), Sweden (6), Italy (5), France (4) andPoland (4). Each submission was reviewed by at least three program committee members or other experts. The program committee chair and co-chair were not allowed to submit papers. The ?nal sel- tion of papers was made at a program committee meeting followed by a week of e-mail discussions. Out of the 114 papers received, only 19 got accepted (17%). In comparison, ESORICS 2000and 2002received 75and 83papersand accepted 19% and 16%, respectively. The program re?ected the full range of security research, including access control, cryptographic protocols, privacy enhancing technologies, security m- els, authentication, and intrusion detection.

In response to the call for papers 159 papers were submitted to the conference. These papers were evaluated on the basis of their signi?cance, novelty,and te- nicalquality. Eachpaper wasreviewedby at leastthree members of the program committee. The program committee meeting was held electronically; there was an intensive discussion over a period of two weeks. Of the papers submitted, 27 were selected for presentation at the conference, giving an acceptance rate lower than 17%. The conference program also included an invited talk. A workshop like this does not just happen; it depends on the volunteer e?orts of ahostofindividuals. Thereisalonglistofpeoplewhovolunteeredtheirtimeand energy to put together the workshopand who deserve special thanks. Thanks to all the members of the program committee, and the external reviewers, for all their hardwork in the paper evaluation.Due to the large number of submissions the program committee members were really required to work hard in a short time frame, and we are very thankful to them for the commitment they showed with their active participation in the electronic discussion.

ESORICS, the European Symposium on Research in Computer Security, is the leading research-oriented conference on the theory and practice of computer security in Europe. It takes place every two years, at various locations throughout Europe, and is coordinated by an independent Steering Committee. ESORICS 2002 was jointly organized by the Swiss Federal Institute of Te- nology (ETH) and the IBM Zurich Research Laboratory, and took place in Zurich, Switzerland, October 14-16, 2002. The program committee received 83 submissions, originating from 22 co- tries. For fans of statistics: 55 submissions came from countries in Europe, the Middle East, or Africa, 16 came from Asia, and 12from North America. The leading countries were USA (11 submissions), Germany (9), France (7), Italy (7), Japan (6), and UK (6). Each submission was reviewed by at least three p- gram committee members or other experts. Each submission coauthored by a program committee member received two additional reviews. The program c- mittee chair and cochair were not allowed to submit papers. The ?nal selection of papers was made at a program committee meeting and resulted in 16 accepted papers. In comparison, ESORICS 2000 received 75 submissions and accepted 19 of them. The program re?ects the full range of security research: we accepted papers on access control, authentication, cryptography, database security, formal methods, intrusion detection, mobile code security, privacy, secure hardware, and secure protocols. We gratefully acknowledge all authors who submitted papers for their e?orts in maintaining the standards of this conference.
