This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Mathematical Methods, Models, and Architectures for Computer Network Security, MMM-ACNS 2017, held in Warsaw, Poland, in August 2017.

This volume contains papers presented at the 3rd International Workshop on Mathematical Methods, Models and Architectures for Computer Network - curity (MMM-ACNS 2005) held in St. Petersburg, Russia, during September 25–27, 2005. The workshop was organized by the St. Petersburg Institute for Informatics and Automation of the Russian Academy of Sciences (SPIIRAS) in cooperation with Binghamton University (SUNY, USA). The 1st and the 2nd International Workshops on Mathematical Methods, Models and Architectures for Computer Network Security (MMM-ACNS 2001 and MMM-ACNS 2003), hosted by the St. Petersburg Institute for Informatics and Automation, demonstrated the keen interest of the international research community in the subject area. It was recognized that conducting a biannual series of such workshops in St. Petersburg stimulates fruitful exchanges between the di?erent schools of thought, facilitates the dissemination of new ideas and promotesthespiritofcooperationbetweenresearchersontheinternationalscale. MMM-ACNS 2005 provided an international forum for sharing original - search results and application experiences among specialists in fundamental and applied problems of computer network security. An important distinction of the workshop was its focus on mathematical aspects of information and computer network security addressing the ever-increasing demands for secure computing and highly dependable computer networks.

This volume contains the papers presented at the International Workshop on Mathematical Methods, Models and Architectures for Computer Network Se- rity(MMM-ACNS2003)heldinSt.Petersburg,Russia,duringSeptember21-23, 2003.TheworkshopwasorganizedbytheSt.PetersburgInstituteforInformatics and Automation of the Russian Academy of Sciences (SPIIRAS) in cooperation with the Russian Foundation for Basic Research (RFBR), the US Air Force - search Laboratory/Information Directorate (AFRL/IF) and the Air Force O?ce of Scienti?c Research (AFOSR), the O?ce of Naval Research International Field O?ce (USA), and Binghamton University (SUNY, USA). The ?rst international workshop of this series, MMM-ACNS2001, May 21- 23, 2001, St. Petersburg, Russia, hosted by the St. Petersburg Institute for - formatics and Automation, demonstrated the keen interest of the international researchcommunityinthetheoreticalaspectsofcomputernetworkandinfor- tion security and encouraged the establishment of an on-going series of brennial workshops.MMM-ACNS2003 provided an international forum for sharing original - search results and application experiences among specialists in fundamental and applied problems of computer network security. An important distinction of the workshop was its focus on mathematical aspects of information and computer networksecurityandtheroleofmathematicalissuesincontemporaryandfuture development of models of secure computing.

Since early 1990, multi-agent systems (MAS), data mining, and knowledge d- covery (KDD) have remained areas of high interest in the research and - velopment of intelligent information technologies. Indeed, MAS o?ers powerful metaphors for information system conceptualization, a range of new techniques, and technologies speci?cally focused on the design and implementation of lar- scale open distributed intelligent systems. KDD also provides intelligent inf- mation technology with powerful ideas, algorithms, and software means to help cope with the main problem of arti?cial intelligence, formulated in the we- known question “Where does the knowledge come from?”, thus actually making modern applications intelligent and adaptive. The evident recent trend in both science and industry is to integrate and take advantage of both technologies. The existing experience with combined application of multi-agent technology to design architectures of distributed (- erarchical and peer-to-peer) data mining and KDD systems, as well as the u- lization of data mining and KDD achievements to provide enhanced intelligence of MAS, con?rms the fact that both technologies are capable of mutual enri- ment and their integrateduse may result in intelligent information systems with new emergent properties. The 1st International Workshop “Autonomous Int- ligent Systems: Agents and Data Mining” (AIS-ADM 2005, June 6–8, 2005, St. Petersburg, Russia) was a response to the aforementioned trend. It con?rmed the interest of academic and industry communities in advancing the e?orts to integrate achievements in MAS and KDD, thus resulting in a new dimension and further progress in intelligent information technology.

This volume contains papers presented at the 5th International Conference on Mat- matical Methods, Models and Architectures for Computer Network Security (MMM-ACNS 2010) held in St. Petersburg, Russia, during September 8-10, 2010. The conference was organized by the Institution of the Russian Academy of Sciences St. Petersburg Institute for Informatics and Automation of RAS (SPIIRAS) in co- eration with Binghamton University (SUNY). The previous conferences in the series (MMM-ACNS 2001, MMM-ACNS 2003, MMM-ACNS 2005 and MMM-ACNS 2007) organized by SPIIRAS and Binghamton University (SUNY) demonstrated the great interest of the international scientific community in the theoretical and practical aspects of computer network and information security. MMM-ACNS 2010 provided the next international forum for sharing original - search results among specialists in fundamental and applied problems of computer network security. A total of 54 papers from 19 countries related to significant aspects of the theory and applications of computer network and information security were submitted to MMM-ACNS 2010: 16 papers were selected for regular and 6 for short presentations (30% of acceptance for full papers and 40% for all papers).
