| Sumario: | It is our great pleasure to welcome you to the 5th ACM Workshop on Moving Target Defense (MTD 2018), held in conjunction with the 25th ACM Conference on Computer and Communications Security (ACM CCS 2018). The MTD workshop continues to be the premier forum for presentation of research results and experience reports on cutting-edge MTD research, including security and control models, defenses and countermeasures, deception techniques, and applications for cloud and network services. The mission of the MTD workshop is to bring together researchers from both the research and the industry community to share novel MTD solutions that address the need for better security and resiliency against increasingly sophisticated attackers and identify new directions for future research and development. The MTD workshop gives researchers and practitioners a unique opportunity to share their perspectives with others interested in the various facets of Moving Target Defense. The call for papers attracted 16 submissions from 7 countries spanning 4 continents, namely Asia, Australia, Europe, and North America. Each submission received at least three, and in most cases as many as five reviews. Each submission was then discussed and carefully debated by the members of the program committee. After careful considerations, the program committee accepted 9 full technical papers. We encourage workshop attendees to attend the keynote talk by Prof. Radha Poovendran, who is a professor and chair of the department of Electrical Engineering at the University of Washington. His talk titled "Dynamic Defense against Adaptive and Persistent Adversaries" will address the design of Moving Target Defense (MTD) and DIFT games for modeling Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs).
