SPEAR co-organises with the following H2020 projects: ASTRID, CYBER-TRUST, FutureTPM, GUARD and SIMARGL the
2nd International Workshop on Cyber-Security Threats, Trust and Privacy Management in Software-defined and Virtualized Infrastructures (SecSoft)
co-hosted at 6th IEEE International Conference on Network Softwarization (NetSoft2020) that will be held from June 29 to July 3, 2020 in Ghent, Belgium. SecSoft 2020 workshop homepage: https://www.astrid-project.eu/secsoft/index.html
SPEAR participates in the organizing committee of SecSoft 2020 with Erkuden Rios from Tecnalia, Spain, who will serve as TPC co-chair.
Call for papers
The SecSoft workshop aims to gather together novel approaches for providing organizations the appropriate situational awareness in relation to cyber security threats allowing them to quickly detect and effectively respond to sophisticated cyber-attacks. The specific target is complementary research works on complementary cyber-security aspects for virtualized and software-defined infrastructures, including but not limited to:
- Cyber-security platforms and architectures for digital services;
- Security, trust and privacy for industrial systems and the IoT (including smart grids);
- Monitoring and advanced data collection and analytics;
- Virtual and software-based cyber-security functions;
- Orchestration and Automatic Configuration of security functions;
- Novel algorithms for attack detection and threat identification;
- Intelligent attack mitigation and remediation;
- Machine learning, big data, network analytics;
- Secure runtime environments, including trustworthy systems and user devices;
- Formal methods and policies for security and trust;
- Novel threat and attack models;
- Authentication, Authorization and Access control;
- Honeypots, forensics and legal investigation tools;
- Threat intelligence and information sharing.
Multi-disciplinary and collaborative research projects are encouraged
to submit joint papers describing their integrated architectures and
cyber-security platforms, with special emphasis on how they address the
challenging cyber-security requirements of softwarized environments and
critical infrastructures.
The workshop will accept the following type of contributions:
- short papers [maximum length: 4 pages, excluding references]
presenting industrial innovations, architectural references of
research projects, main outcomes from demos and field trials, and
preliminary research activities;
- regular papers [maximum length: 7 pages, excluding references]
presenting research results or technical developments.
