EnCyCriS 2023

The 4th edition of the International Workshop on Engineering and Cybersecurity of Critical Systems (EnCyCriS) is being held in May 2023.

Publisert: 17. November 2022

This workshop is organized in conjunction with the 45th International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE). The workshop will be held in may 2023.

Call for papers

The workshop will facilitate discourse and discussions among researchers, practitioners, and students who are working on challenges and solutions related to the industrial revolution There will be a particular focus on sharing industry experience and project results pertaining to cyber threats on critical systems, secure software engineering, and attack detection and response mechanisms.

EnCyCriS invites contributions from research scholars and practitioners working on challenges and solutions for engineering and cybersecurity of critical systems on the following topics:

  • Safe, reliable, and secure by design - and - Safety and security co-engineering.
  • Threat modeling and analyzing software systems security in critical infrastructures.
  • Identification and impact estimation for response of cyber effects on software and hardware of critical infrastructures using models, simulations, and digital twins.
  • The role and impact of human in cybersecurity in critical infrastructures development and operation.

Important dates

  • Paper Submission Deadline: 30th January 2023
  • Paper Acceptance Notification: 24th February 2023 6th March
  • Camera-ready Papers: 17th March 2023
  • Workshop date: May 20th

Program

This workshop will include keynote talks and accepted papers organized into different sessions, with a corresponding session chair. Each presentation (pre-recorded video or live presentation) will be followed by a live Q&A session where the authors will be invited.
