| Research Abstract |
This report summarizes the activities of in the whole period of the steering committee of the priority research area The committee organized the nine planned research groups into three categories and directed each to investigate one of the three research approaches : (1)theory and verification, (2)languages and description systems, and (3)operating systems and implementation infrastructures, for protecting software systems from viruses and various malicious attacks. The committee intended that the research and development results of the three approaches would constitute three-layered protect ion strategies against attacks. Our expectation on the research and developments was right. A good number of high quality individual research and developments were obtained : pretty many research papers have been internationally published, a number of newly constructed software packages have become downloadable, many patents are granted. Furthermore, among them, many research results which have soc

ial impacts/influence were reported by social medias such as general news papers and technology community papers. In parallel with the individual research, the steering committee appointed some members of the planned research group to construct some software very useful, yet very safe, which has the proposed three-layer protection structures. After some number of discussion meetings, we decided to construct a highly innovative and safe, yet easily usable mail system. The mail system is now called "AnZen Mail" and its basic designed was completed in September 2001 The β-version of the mail system was released in December, 2003.
During the 3.5 year period of our priority research, we have held 6 international symposia and workshops. Based on the papers presented in the symposia and workshops, we edited two books on software security and they consist of collections of internationally refereed papers. These two books are published from the prestigious German Publisher. Springer Verlag in 2003 and 2004. The first book was selected as one of Springer' s Hot Topics. Less
