This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th European Symposium on Research in Computer Security, ESORICS 2004, held in Sophia Antipolis, France in September 2004. The 27 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 159 submissions. Among the topics addressed are access control, authorization frameworks, privacy policies, security protocols, trusted computing, anonymity, information hiding, steganography, digital signature schemes, encrypted communication, information flow control, authentication, key distribution, public key cryptography, intrusion prevention, and attack discovery.

We live in a wired society, with computers containing and passing around vital information on both personal and public matters. Keeping this data safe is of paramount concern to all. Yet, not a day seems able to pass without some new threat to our computers. Unfortunately, the march of technology has given us the benefits of computers and electronic tools, while also opening us to unforeseen dangers. Identity theft, electronic spying, and the like are now standard worries. In the effort to defend both personal privacy and crucial databases, computer security has become a key industry. A vast array of companies devoted to defending computers from hackers and viruses have cropped up. Research and academic institutions devote a considerable amount of time and effort to the study of information systems and computer security. Anyone with access to a computer needs to be aware of the developing trends and growth of computer security. To that end, this book presents a comprehensive and carefully selected bibliography of the literature most relevant to understanding computer security. Following the bibliography section, continued access is provided via author, title, and subject indexes. With such a format, this book serves as an important guide and reference tool in the defence of our computerised culture.
