Abstract	It is our great pleasure to present to you the post-proceedings of the New Security Paradigms Workshop -- NSPW 2014. Since 1992, NSPW has offered a unique forum for computer security/information security research involving high-risk, high-opportunity paradigms, perspectives and positions. NSPW seeks embryonic, disruptive, and unconventional ideas that benefit from early feedback. The ideas are almost always not yet proven, and sometimes infeasible to validate to the extent expected in traditional forums. Papers typically address current limitations of computer/information security, directly challenge long-held beliefs or the very foundations of security, or view problems from an entirely novel angle leading to new solution paradigms. NSPW nurtures ideas pushing the boundaries of science and engineering beyond what would typically be considered mainstream; papers that would be strong candidates in "conventional" computer/information security venues are, as a rule of thumb, a poor fit for NSPW. We welcome papers with perspectives that augment traditional computer/information security, both from other computer science disciplines and other sciences that study adversarial relationships (e.g., biology, economics, the social sciences). The workshop itself was highly interactive as usual, with author presentations leading to in-depth discussions, and ample opportunity to exchange views. The workshop continued its deep-rooted tradition of positive feedback, collegiality, and encouragement. The papers lead to spirited discussion related to the new ideas and perspectives. This year's workshop was held on beautiful Vancouver Island, at the Inn at Laurel Point in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. The new thoughts and discussions were punctuated by views of whales and seal lions on our shared excursion on the bay, churned by the excellent food and beverages, and refined in long laid-back evenings sharing friendship new and renewed. As usual, all participants committed to the NSPW "social contract": no one arrived late or left early, laptops and mobile phones were left outside of the meeting room, and all invitees attend all sessions of the 2.5 day program, sharing meals in a group setting. The workshop was preceded by an evening reception allowing attendees to meet each other beforehand. We were fortunate to receive a terrific crop of submissions this year: 32 papers, of which 11 were accepted for publication with an additional publication presented as a panel. As is usual for NSPW, the papers ranged over a wide variety of topics, from new ways to explain vulnerabilities, to security as a social experiment, to a regulatory environment approach to security, and the use of deception in security, as well as many others. We continued an element introduced in 2013, a graduate student track called "New Security Paradigms: Higher and Deeper" (NSPHD). This was devised to encourage student involvement, providing guidance for inventive research ideas. This category is for students at an early stage in thesis research that meets the NSPW characteristics noted above, and ideally for thesis work and directions that would benefit from extensive expert feedback, e.g., for research at a preliminary (mature or completed theses are unsuitable). These NSPHD papers were formally peer-reviewed (as the main papers were), but with the goal of providing instructional feedback to the students to help introduce them to our research community. This year's program had one NSPHD paper and a summary of the NSPHD paper is included in these proceedings.
