Call for Papers: IEEE CSR Workshop on Cyber Forensics and Advanced Threat Investigations in Emerging Technologies 2024

The IEEE CSR Workshop on Cyber Forensics and Advanced Threat Investigations in Emerging Technologies is now accepting research paper submissions for its event in 2024. The workshop will be held in a hybrid mode, with the in-person mode taking place at Hilton London Tower Bridge, London, from 2 to 4 September 2024.

The workshop aims to bring together researchers, practitioners, and industry professionals to discuss and share their latest research findings and practical experiences in the field of cyber forensics and advanced threat investigations in emerging technologies. The topics of interest include (but are not limited to) forensics and threat investigations in P2P, cloud/edge, SDN/NFV, VPN, and social networks, forensics and visualization of big data, tools and services for cyber forensics and threat investigations, attack detection, traceback, and attribution in emerging technologies, malware analysis and attribution, methods for reconstruction of digital evidence in emerging technologies, security and privacy in P2P, cloud/edge, SDN/NFV, VPN, and social networks, security and privacy in IoT, smart tech (car, home, city), open source intelligence (OSINT), dark web investigations, digital evidence extraction/analysis using AI/ML and data mining, data exfiltration from networked devices/services(e.g.cyber-physical systems, IoT), and large-scale investigations and ML for the analysis of intelligence data sets and logs.

The workshop also encourages contributions describing innovative work in the realm of cybersecurity, cyber defense, and digital crimes. The important dates to keep in mind are as follows: Paper Submission Deadline: June 3, 2024 AOE, Authors Notifications: July 3, 2024 AOE, Camera Ready submission: July 14, 2024 AOE, Early registration deadline: July 20, 2024 AOE.

The workshop’s proceedings will be published by IEEE and will be included in IEEE Xplore. There will also be awards presented during the workshop, including the Best Open-Source Tool Prize and the Best Paper award, which includes a one-year free license to utilize renowned digital forensics software. The workshop is technically supported by the Association of Cyber Forensics and Threat Investigators, the Industrial Cybersecurity Center, and the Institute for Systems and Technologies of Information, Control, and Communication.
