The IEEE International Conference on Cyber Security and Resilience (IEEE CSR) is an annual event sponsored by the IEEE Systems, Man, and Cybernetics (SMC) Society.


DESCRIPTION & SCOPE
-------------------
The technological and industrial revolution brought by complex cyber-physical systems (CPS) comes with new threats and cyber-attacks that exploit their inherent complexity and heterogeneity. These attacks have a significant negative impact on the operation of various services in critical sectors, like energy, transport, and communications, which provide the vital functions that our societies depend upon.

Systems under attack, should exhibit resilience in the form of graceful degradation and/or operational continuity and fast recovery of core functions in order to avoid potentially uncontrolled cascading effects. To this end, the emerging field of cyber resilience can be understood as a mixture of strategies, methods, and techniques to support complex CPS adaptive capacity during cyber-attacks.

The conference focuses on theoretical and practical aspects of the security, privacy, trust, and resilience of networks, systems, and services as well as novel ways for dealing with their vulnerabilities and mitigating sophisticated cyber-attacks.

IMPORTANT DATES
---------------
Paper submission deadline: February 1, 2023 AoE
Authors’ notification: March 15 , 2023 AoE
Camera-ready submission: April 1, 2023 AoE
Early registration deadline: April 15, 2023 AoE


SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
---------------------
The IEEE CSR 2023 conference will accept high-quality regular research papers, Systematization of Knowledge (SoK) papers, and industrial papers. The IEEE CSR 2023 also hosts workshops that specialize into the conference’s areas or focus on high-quality applied research and innovation results obtained from cyber-security and resilience projects.

Submitted manuscripts should not exceed 6 pages (plus 2 extra pages, being subject to overlength page charges) and should be of sufficient detail to be evaluated by expert reviewers in the field. The conference (including workshops) proceedings will be published by IEEE and will be included in IEEE Xplore.

The authors of selected accepted papers will be invited to submit an extended version to special issues of international journals. Detailed information about the paper submission and guidelines to authors have been posted on the IEEE CSR 2023 conference website https://www.ieee-csr.org.
