7. Geo-information and Geo-spatial Intelligence security systems (GIS)
8. Data and Telecommunication Networks security
9. Frequency and Spectrum monitoring, security and management
10. Biometric Recognition systems and Biometry information exchange security
B. Cyber security – Information Intelligence Management, Detection, Prevention and Training
1. Cyber-crime detection and prevention
2. Cyber-criminology
3. Criminal data mining
4. Fraud management
5. Crime information intelligence network
6. Cyber threat intelligence
7. Cyber War
8. Training and Cyber-crime prevention
9. Attack pattern recognition
10. Threat Analysis, Threat prediction and Information security management systems, Risk Management
11. Command and Decision Support Systems for various type incident management
12. Cloud Computing Security

19. High Performance Computer Grid protection – Performance monitoring, safety and sustainability
20. e-Government / m-Government Security
C. Nanotechnology & nanoelectronics for security applications
1. Intelligent sensors for identity management, electro-optical systems, acoustic systems, radars, e.t.c.
2. Trusted devices and smart secure portable objects for multi-level security architectures
3. New hardware technologies for new memory architectures, memory management units, digital rights management units, processors and cryptographic, resistance to side-channel attacks, anti-tampering coatings and packaging on–chip batteries.
4. All-in-one imaging sensors, including emission and active imaging, detection, processing in focal point, pupil post processing and tracking treatments.
ICGS3 – 2012 will address specific key reference integration and collaboration Research & Development projects which are related to critical infrastructure protection, cyber security and nanotechnology security applications. Partners who participated in R&D projects will present their latest developments, project achievements and how these projects have succeeded to increase the level of security in a European wide and Global perspective, how these projects influenced certain standardisation bodies and how these projects manage effectively critical infrastructures and recover them from severe damages. In this context ICGS3 – 2012 will link further industry with academia, with research and development and with End User operational experience.
Delegates, speakers and general participants will have the chance to walk through ICGS3 and EXPOSEC conference halls, watch interesting presentations from globally appreciated invited speakers and grab the chance to exchange information and discuss certain topics of interest.
Authors whose extended abstracts and presentations are accepted for publication will be given a period of time of 4 months to submit the final version and camera ready of their papers. ICGS3 – 2012 proceedings will be available in hard copy as well in electronic copies. Selected papers from ICGS3 – 2012 proceedings will go through second round of evaluation and a small portion of them will be published in the International Journal of Electronic Security and Digital Forensics – IJESDF of Inderscience publisher.
Due to extremely tight submission deadline and large amount of requests for extensions, ICGS3 organising committee decided to accept and review only extended paper abstracts and presentations until 3rd February 2012.
ICGS3 participants will be provided significant discounted prices for registration fees and accommodation.
