Sumario: | It is our great pleasure to welcome you to the 8th ACM CCS International Workshop on Managing Insider Security Threats -- MIST'16. Since 2009, the MIST workshop, which aims to showcase novel proactive approaches to prevent, detect, and respond to insider threats and information leakages, has been held as follows. 1st MIST (in conjunction with IFIPTM 2009): June 16, 2009, West Lafayette, USA 2nd MIST (in conjunction with IFIPTM 2010): June 15, 2010, Morioka, Iwate, Japan 3rd MIST (in conjunction with InCos 2011): December 1-2, 2011, Fukuoka, Japan 4th MIST: November 8-9, 2012, Kyushu University, Fukuoka, Japan 5th MIST: October 24-25, 2013, Pukyong National University, Busan, Rep. of Korea 6th MIST: November 21-22, 2014, Konkuk University, Seoul, Rep. of Korea 7th MIST (in conjunction with ACM CCS 2015): October 16, 2015, The Denver Marriot City Center, Denver, Colorado, USA This year, MIST'16 continues to play its important role of the leading forum for bringing together researchers from academia and industry as well as practitioners to discuss the latest research challenges and advances in managing insider security threats. This year, we accepted 8 high qualified papers among a total of 22 submissions (with an acceptance rate of 36.4%) after a rigorous peer-review process where each submission is reviewed by at least three technical program committee members. In addition, 7 short papers were selected for short oral and poster presentation at MIST'16. We expect that MIST'16 will promote further related research and technology enhancements in this significant security area.
