----------------------------------------------------------------------

The annual  DIMVA conference serves  as a premier forum  for advancing
the state  of the art  in intrusion detection, malware  detection, and
vulnerability   assessment.    Each   year   DIMVA   brings   together
international  experts  from  academia,  industry  and  government  to
present and discuss novel research  in these areas. DIMVA is organized
by  the special  interest  group Security  -  Intrusion Detection  and
Response  (SIDAR)  of  the   German  Informatics  Society  (GI).   The
conference  proceedings  will appear in   Springer's  Lecture Notes in
Computer Science (LNCS) series.

DIMVA solicits  submission of high-quality,  original scientific work.
This year we invite two types of paper submissions:

* Full  papers, presenting  novel and  mature research  results.  Full
  papers  are   limited  to  20  pages,  prepared   according  to  the
  instructions provided  below. They will  be reviewed by  the program
  committee, and  papers accepted  for presentation at  the conference
  will be included in the proceedings.

* Short  papers  (extended   abstracts),  presenting  original,  still
  ongoing work  that has not yet  reached the maturity  required for a
  full paper. Short papers are limited to 10 pages, prepared according
  to the  instructions provided below.  They will also be  reviewed by
  the program  committee, and papers accepted for  presentation at the
  conference will be included  in the proceedings (containing Extended
  Abstract in the title).
