CIPHERSS: 1st Workshop on Critical Infrastructure PHysical-cybER Safety and Security

8th April 2024

In conjunction with the 19th European Dependable Computing Conference
Leuven, Belgium, April 8-11, 2024
EDCC 2024

Aims & Scope

Critical Infrastructures (CIs) are an inevitable part of the modern, interconnected world. Their main objective is to provide services essential for the physical and economical well-being of citizens. The number of the attack attempts such infrastructures endure, forces academy, industries and public bodies to keep high the interest in the protection against security threats. Recent Artificial Intelligence (AI) advancements improve CIs protection through risk analysis. Digital Twins (DTs) enhance risk assessment and decision-making by syncing complex systems and incorporating data, including consumer behaviour.

This workshop aims at providing a forum to communicate their latest results on theoretical advances, industrial case studies, practical scenarios, and lessons learned in the design and in the verification of properties of critical infrastructures.

Topics of Interest

The workshop will cover a broad perspective on CIs protection, which includes, but is not limited to:

approaches based on the combination of different perspectives (e.g., physical and cyber security);
security/performance trade-offs for cryptographic schemes and algorithms;
safety/security trade-offs in protection systems;
integration between model-based and data-driven approaches;
innovative techniques based on DTs;
usage of AI techniques to ensure quality and related trustworthiness;
predictive and defect maintenance;
risk assessment methodologies for critical infrastructure protections.
