[DMANET] [CPS-Sec 2021] CFP - IEEE International Workshop on Cyber-Physical Systems Security **** APPROACHING SUBMISSION DEADLINE: JULY 15, 2021 ****

*CPS-Sec 2021 - CALL FOR PAPERS
* =================================================================
The 6th IEEE International Workshop on Cyber-Physical Systems Security
(CPS-Sec)https://spritz.math.unipd.it/events/2021/Cps_sec2021/index.html
<https://spritz.math.unipd.it/events/2021/Cps_sec2021/index.html> will
be held in conjunction with the 29th IEEE International Conference on
Network Protocols (ICNP 2021) in November 2nd - 5th 2021, virtual event
=================================================================
The scientific evolution of digital, analog, and physical devices and
their interactions with the networked systems created the Cyber-Physical
Systems (CPS). Today, the boundary between cyber and physical systems is
blurring. CPS covers a multitude of smart devices, ranging from
smartphones and tablets to devices and applications which exist in
industrial, transportation, medical, home security, building automation,
emergency management, power, and many other systems. These all enable
the vision of CPS by allowing human beings to interact with the physical
world and serve critical functions in our lives. Given the popularity of
the CPS applications, securing them against malicious activities is of
utmost importance. Otherwise, malfunctioning and insecure CPS devices
and applications can cause enormous damage to individuals, businesses,
and nations.

Therefore, the International Workshop on CyberPhysical Systems Security
(CPS-Sec) seeks novel submissions describing practical and theoretical
solutions to the cyber security challenges facing CPS. Submissions may
represent any application area for CPS. Hence, papers that are pertinent
to the security of embedded systems, Internet of Things (IoT),
Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) Systems, Smart-Grids,
Critical Infrastructure Networks, Transportation Systems, and Medical
Devices are all welcome. Example topics of interest are given below, but
are not limited to:

* Secure CPS architectures
* Authentication mechanisms for CPS
* Access control for CPS
* Key management in CPS
* Data security and privacy for CPS
* Forensics for CPS
* Intrusion detection for CPS
* Trusted-computing in CPS
* Energy-efficient and secure CPS
* Availability, recovery, and auditing for CPS
* Distributed secure solutions for CPS
* Threat models for CPS
* Physical layer security for CPS
* Security on heterogeneous CPS
* Secure protocol design in CPS
* Vulnerability analysis of CPS
* Anonymization in CPS
* Security of CPS in automotive systems
* Security of CPS in aerospace systems
* Security of embedded systems
* Security of CPS in medical devices/systems
* Security of CPS in civil engineering systems/devices
* Security of industrial control systems
* Security of Internet-of-Things
