 ==============================================================================
 Enterprises are increasingly dependent on their information systems to
 support their business and workflow activities.  
 There is a need for universal electronic connectivity to support 
 interaction and cooperation between multiple  organizations.  
 This makes enterprise security and confidentiality more important, 
 but more difficult to achieve, as the multiple organizations may 
 have differences in their security policies and may have to interact 
 via an insecure Internet.  These inter-organizational enterprise systems 
 may be very large and so tools and techniques are needed
 to support the specification, analysis and implementation of security.
 
 This workshop will focus on the problems and challenges relating to
 enterprise security in inter-organizational systems. We aim to bring
 together principal players from both the internetwork and enterprise
 security community and will provide plenty of time for discussion.   Topics
 to be addressed include:
 
 	- Internet/Intranet security
         - Security infrastructure and protocols
 	- Java Security
 	- Specifying and Analyzing Enterprise Security Policy
         - Role-Based Access Control
         - Supporting enterprise security over the Internet
         - Conflicts and harmonization of inter- and intra-organizational
              Security
         - Distributed Database Security
         - Secure Transactions
         - Security in Workflow Process
         - Object-Oriented and CORBA Security
         - Secure Applications and Environments
         - Integrating Heterogeneous Security Environments
         - Managing inter-organizational Enterprise Security
 	- Internet Security protocols
 	- Security Algorithms
 
 This workshop will be part of the IEEE Sixth Workshops on Enabling
 Technologies: Infrastructure for Collaborative Enterprises (WET-ICE
 96) organized by the Concurrent Engineering Research Center (CERC)/
 West Virginia University.
