This workshop aims to showcase new and emerging strategies and technologies for forecasting, mitigating, countering, and attributing cyber-events that threaten security and privacy within the realm of IoT. Additionally, we invite arguments for innovative and off-the-wall solutions that have sound academic backing. The institutional benefits of IoT adoption are clear, however security and privacy concerns are constantly coming to light. As organizations—both public and private, large and small—adopt new IoT technologies, we hope that this forum can serve as an opening conversation between government, industry, and academia for the purpose of addressing those concerns.

We are pleased to announce that The 6th International Symposium on Digital Forensic and Security (ISDFS 2018) will be held in Antalya, Turkey, on March 22-25, 2018. The conference is technically sponsored by IEEE Turkey Section. The conference proceedings will be submitted for publication in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library.

ISDFS provides a platform for researchers and experts in academia, industry and government to exchange ideas and recent developments in digital forensics and security. After the several successful events, the sixth ISDFS conference will continue to promote and disseminate knowledge concerning several topics and technologies related to Digital Forensics and Security.

PKC 2018 is the 21st edition of the International Conference on Practice and Theory of Public Key Cryptography, the main annual conference with an explicit focus on public-key cryptography, sponsored by IACR, the International Association for Cryptologic Research. Original research papers on all aspects of public-key cryptography, covering theory, implementations and applications, are solicited for submission to PKC 2018. Accepted papers will be published by Springer in their Lecture Notes in Computer Science series.

Information security and privacy continue to grow in importance, as threats proliferate, privacy erodes, and attackers find new sources of value. Yet the security of information systems and the privacy offered by them depends on more than just technology. Each requires an understanding of the incentives and trade-offs inherent to the behavior of people and organizations. As society’s dependence on information technology has deepened, policy-makers have taken notice. Now more than ever, careful research is needed to characterize accurately threats and countermeasures, in both the public and private sectors.

The Workshop on the Economics of Information Security (WEIS) is the leading forum for interdisciplinary scholarship on information security and privacy, combining expertise from the fields of economics, social science, business, law, policy, and computer science. Prior workshops have explored the role of incentives between attackers and defenders of information systems, identified market failures surrounding Internet security, quantified risks of personal data disclosure, and assessed investments in cyber-defense. The 2018 workshop will build on past efforts using empirical and analytic tools not only to understand threats, but also to strengthen security and privacy through novel evaluations of available solutions.

The ICCRCPS 2018: 20th International Conference on Cybersecurity and Resilience of Cyber Physical Systems aims to bring together leading academic scientists, researchers and research scholars to exchange and share their experiences and research results on all aspects of Cybersecurity and Resilience of Cyber Physical Systems. It also provides a premier interdisciplinary platform for researchers, practitioners and educators to present and discuss the most recent innovations, trends, and concerns as well as practical challenges encountered and solutions adopted in the fields of Cybersecurity and Resilience of Cyber Physical Systems.

The 23rd International Conference on Reliable Software Technologies – Ada-Europe 2018 will take place in Lisbon, Portugal. As per its traditional style, the conference will span a full week, including, from Tuesday to Thursday, three days of parallel scientific, technical and industrial programs, along with tutorials and workshops on Monday and Friday.

The conference will provide an international forum for researchers, developers and users of reliable software technologies all over the world. Presentations and discussions cover applied and theoretical work currently conducted to support, the development and maintenance of reliable software systems.

Cybersecurity and cybersecurity policy means different things to different disciplines. It can involve the exploration of algorithms and technologies to secure systems, the study of how users interact with computers in order to provide stronger methods of privacy protection, the examination of digital approaches to development, how to control—through laws and technology—the growing surveillance society, analyzing the impact of the “borderless” world of the Internet has on sovereignty, studying how changing communications technologies impact law (and how law impacts changing communications technologies), analyzing the impact of artificial intelligence and machine learning on the economy – and more.

The SEC conferences are a series of well-established international conferences on Security and Privacy. SEC is the flagship event of the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) Technical Committee 11 (TC-11).

The IFIP SEC conferences aim to bring together primarily researchers, but also practitioners from academia, industry and governmental institutions to elaborate and discuss IT Security and Privacy Challenges that we are facing today and will be facing in the future.
