EICAR 2016 Conference Proceedings

Více o knize

EICAR, the European Institute for Computer Antivirus Research, has restarted its conference activities in 2016. The gap in conference activities was necessary because of the slight switch in strategy. EICAR moved from assuring actuality of anti-virus configuration and products towards assuring the trustworthiness of employed solutions – the so-called EICAR Trustworthiness Strategy. Using this momentum, EICAR has again organized a conference. The results are documented in this proceedings book. The papers included here reflect the change in strategy: there are some publications on anti-virus and security, but also papers on how to assess and / or certify the trustworthiness of software in general and papers on legal aspects of trustworthiness. The conference was co-located with the it-sa fair in Germany. This allowed to include additional business presentations from security companies in the conference, but these presentations did not make it in this proceedings book.
