Synopsis
The Institute for Information Infrastructure Protection (I3P) is a consortium of twenty three academic and not-for-profit research organizations focused on cyber security and information infrastructure protection research and development (R&D). Its mission is to help protect the information infrastructure of the United States by developing a comprehensive, prioritized R&D Agenda for cyber security and promoting collaboration and information sharing among academia, industry, and government. This document constitutes the initial Cyber Security R&D Agenda.
This initial Agenda identifies R&D topics of significant value to the security of the information infrastructure that are either not funded or under-funded by the collection of private sector and government-sponsored research activities in the United States. The Agenda is based on information gathered and analyzed during the 2002 calendar year and reflects the input of experts in industry, government, and academia. The Agenda, together with that supporting information, is intended to aid researchers in identifying problems and R&D program managers in defining program directions. Areas in which new or additional research is needed include:
• Enterprise Security Management
• Trust Among Distributed Autonomous Parties
• Discovery and Analysis of Security Properties and Vulnerabilities
• Secure System and Network Response and Recovery
• Traceback, Identification, and Forensics
• Wireless Security
• Metrics and Models
• Law, Policy, and Economic Issues
