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:

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.
 * Full papers, presenting  novel and  mature research  results.  Full

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).
