The First Computer Network Forensics Research Workshop will bring together researchers and practitioners of computer network forensics to further define and refine field while sharing their research results.

Goals of CNFR '05:

•   Disseminate New and in-progress research in network forensics

•   Define Network Forensics as an area, how it relates to other areas, and what new problems are to be faced.

•   Build a community of those interested in network forensics.

Example Areas of Interest:

Defining/Modeling Network Forensics

Legal/Practical Challenges to Network Evidence

Application of Traditional Security Tools

Network Forensics Architectures

Traceback & Attribution

Evidence Collection/Storage

International/Internet Legal Issues/Case Studies

Problems with Use of Traditional Network Tools

Law Enforcement/Legal Perspectives

Other Digital Forensics-related Research

Document Formatting and Submission:

Technical papers describing original unpublished research in computer and network forensics or problem/issue statements related to network forensics.  

Submissions must not exceed 8 pages in IEEE conference style, two-column format. Submissions must not be concurrently under review by a conference, journal or any other venue that has proceedings.

Authors should prepare a PDF version of their full paper. Please follow NSF PDF generation guidelines (https://www.fastlane.nsf.gov/documents/pdf_create/pdfcreate_01.jsp) in doing so. Submission instructions will be available on the workshop website: http://www.ece.iastate.edu/cnfr/

All submitted papers will be judged based on their originality, quality, and applicability through double-blind reviewing, where the identities of the authors are withheld from the reviewers. Authors' names and obvious references must not appear in the paper or in the PDF file.

All accepted papers must be presented by an author at the workshop.
