2nd Japan/U.S. Workshop on Critical Information Infrastructure Protection

June 26 - 27, 2005
Tokyo Garden Palace Hotel
Tokyo, Japan

Critical Information Infrastructure Protection (CIIP) is concerned with protection for telecommunication networks and information systems which are working as critical infrastructures significantly affecting quality of life, safety, and economic activities.

This workshop, which follows up on the United States - Japan Critical Information Infrastructure Protection Workshop held in September 2004, is aimed at bringing together researchers who may strengthen the existing Japan-US cooperative relation and to establish new relations between Japanese and US CIIP researchers.

Relevant research areas include:

Protection of information infrastructures such as the Internet and other telecommunications networks
Data protection, both in transit and when stored
Behavior and social science aspects of information security
Detecting and recovering from cyber attacks

In addition to technical talks, information will be presented about funding opportunities to support Japan-US research collaborations.

International flights from the U.S. to Tokyo fly into Narita Airport. In order to be reimbursed for your travel expenses, you must follow the standard NSF guidelines. In particular, you must fly on a US-based airline and in coach class. I recommend my travel agent, Yanina, at Blue Sky Travel, (212) 396-0773, BlueRakiaa @ aol.com. She is very helpful and good at finding inexpensive flights.

Getting to Tokyo Garden Palace from Narita Airport:

From Narita International Airport to Hotel via the JR-East train line. The Tokyo Garden Palace Hotel is near the Ochanomizu station on the Japan Railways JR-East Chu-o line. You can take either the train or the bus from Narita airport to Tokyo station to catch the Chu-o Line. The train is recommended.
