Proceedings of the Eleventh Workshop on Visualization for Cyber Security, Paris, France, November 10, 2014

Cyber security plays a critical role in the health and well being of nations around the world. Cyber-warfare, cyber-crime, and cyber-terrorism threaten the economic and political stability of society. Botnets and automated attacks disrupt services, threaten national infrastructures, and fuel international crime. As VizSec continues into its 11th annual meeting, the importance of cyber security continues to rise. High profile cyber security incidents and data breaches highlight the importance of security for organizations both large and small. The need for better tools in cyber security is now widely recognized and supported. Important research problems often lie at the intersection of disparate domains. The focus of VizSec is to explore effective, scalable visual interfaces for security domains where visualization provides a distinct benefit. This includes computer forensics, reverse engineering, privacy, compliance management, firewall management, wireless security, secure coding, and other areas of network security. Human time and attention are precious resources, and these tools must use them effectively. This year's program explores the use of visualization techniques to support collaborative security analysis, to aid in the reverse engineering of malware, to facilitate the analysis of system-level information, as well as techniques and challenges for evaluating security visualizations.
