All qualified papers will be invited to submit an extended version to four special issues.

--------------------------------------------
The Internet of Things (IoT) technology is widely adopted by the vast majority of businesses and is impacting every aspect of the world. However, the natures of the Internet, communication, embedded OS and backend recourses make IoT objects vulnerable to cyber attacks. In addition, most standard security solutions designed for enterprise systems are not applicable to IoT devices. As a result, we are facing a big IoT security and protection challenge, and it is urgent to analyze IoT-specific cyber attacks to design novel and efficient security mechanisms.

This workshop will focus on IoT attacks and defenses, and seek original submissions that discuss either practical or theoretical solutions to identify IoT vulnerabilities and IoT security mechanisms. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the ones listed below.

- Malware and unwanted software for IoT
- Vulnerability analysis and reverse engineering for IoT
- IoT security and privacy
- IoT forensic techniques
- Usable security and privacy for IoT
- Intrusion detection and prevention for IoT
- Cyber intelligence techniques for IoT
- IoT infrastructures and mitigation techniques
- IoT Hardware security
- Cyber physical systems security
- Adversarial learning for IoT
- IoT Cyber crime
- Denial-of-Service attacks for IoT
- Security measurement for IoT
- IoT security visualization techniques
- Edge/Fog computing attack and defense


Important Dates:

- Workshop paper submission deadline: July 12, 2020 (Firm!, 23:59 AOE)
- Workshop paper notification: August 10, 2020
- Camera-ready version deadline: August 20, 2020
- Workshop date: 18 September, 2020


Submission Guidelines:

Submitted papers must not substantially overlap papers that have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a conference with proceedings. Papers should be at most 16 pages (full paper) or 8 pages (short paper) in the LNCS format, including the bibliography and well-marked appendices. Committee members are not required to read the appendices, so the paper should be intelligible without them. All submissions must be written in English. Authors of accepted papers must guarantee that their papers will be registered and presented at the workshop.

All qualified papers will be invited to submit an extended version to several special issues.

1. Journal of Information Security and Applications (SCI-indexed)

2. Symmetry (SCI-indexed)

3. IEEE Access (SCI-indexed)

4. Annals of Telecommunications, IF=1.552, Special Issue on Security and Privacy for Cross-Blockchains

5. Journal of Information Security and Applications, IF=1.537, Special Issue on Blockchain for Edge-enabled Smart Cities Applications

6. International Journal of Computational Science and Engineering
