 Seminar participants will learn to use the DÉTER experimental interface. |
| |
Specialists will gather in Washington D.C. October 25 to
familiarize themselves with a testbed and tools aimed at
bolstering Internet defenses against malicious attacks. Participants will receive an introduction
to the DETER
laboratory, a shared testbed infrastructure that can show
how
dangerous code can propagate on the Internet -- and how
effective defenses might be. A parallel
effort called EMIST
develops new tools
and test methodologies for use in the testbed.
DETER and EMIST are both funded by the
National
Science Foundation (NSF) and the U.S. Department of
Homeland Security Advanced Research Projects Agency
(HSARPA).
The one-day event will include presentation of DDOS, worm
and BGP routing experiments conducted using the testbed by
the EMIST team, EMIST software tools, tutorials on testbed
usage, DETER testbed operational policy and procedures,
and working group sessions that will explain how
researchers can arrange to use DETER resources.
The workshop will be at the Wyndham City Center Hotel in
Washington D.C. on Monday Oct. 25, the site of the ACM
Conference on Computer and Communications Security.
Those interested in attending the conference can request a
registration form by emailing deterinfo@isi.edu Registration is
by invitation and there is no cost.
