1st Cyber Security in Cars Workshop (CSCS) co-located with the 31st ACM Conference on Computer and Communications Security (CCS)


Aim of the Event

Industry, as well as academia, have made great advances working towards an overall vision of fully autonomous driving. Despite the success stories, great challenges still lie ahead of us to make this grand vision come true. On the one hand, future systems have to be yet more capable to perceive, reason, and act in complex real-world scenarios. On the other hand, these future systems have to comply with our expectations for robustness, security, and safety.


Workshop Scope

Topics: Submission of contributions are invited in (but not limited to) the following key areas:

* Secure in-vehicle communication and lightweight cryptographic protocols
* System security of electronic control units, gateways etc. (e.g., hardware security, OS security)
* Secure external communication (e.g., V2X, Internet) and protocols (e.g., secure remote update)
* Automotive security standardization, secure software development, security testing
* Automotive security monitoring (e.g., IDS, IPS, SIEM, SOC)
* Privacy-enhancing technologies and mechanisms for automotive applications
* Piracy, product counterfeit, and theft protection (e.g., RKE, Immobilizer)
* Practical security evaluations / penetration testing
* Interaction of safety and security
* New threat due to integration of Artificial Intelligence
* Novel defenses enabled by Artificial Intelligence
* Security of Artificial Intelligence


Submissions

We are looking for papers with high quality, original and unpublished contributions of twelve pages (without references). Note that reviewers are not required to read appendices or any supplementary material. The review process is double-blind. Submissions have to be anonymized.

All papers must be formatted in the double-column ACM format and submitted via the submission system. Authors should not change the font or the margins of the ACM format. Submissions not following the required format may be rejected without review.
