Accountable and Secure Systems

Preventative countermeasures and accountability are two complementary approaches to address computer security. Preventative countermeasures have been the primary approach in practice and in research. Real-world experiences from dealing with security indicate that accountability is not only complement to preventative countermeasures, but also necessary, in particular, when online privacy becomes a growing concern to individuals and societies at the advent of sophisticated cross-site referencing tools and algorithms. The primary object is thus to build accountable systems and networks to address real-word computer security.
