The Internet of Things (IoT) and Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), which are the major contributors in this area, will fuel the realization of this new, globally interconnected cyber-world. Yet, the success, prosperity, and advancement of IoT and CPS strongly depend on the security, privacy, and trust of the IoT and cyber-physical devices as well as the sensitive data being exchanged. While these technologies offer a lot of new possibilities, the increasing complexity of hardware and software as well as the worldwide access increase the vulnerability to security attacks Successful attacks targeted to IoT devices and CPS have in common that not only a single computer is affected, but also interconnected technical systems allowing interaction with the physical world are influenced, leading to malfunction of devices and control systems with severe financial, environmental, and health losses. This fact highlights the need to develop novel tools that will constitute the heart of a much-needed science of security for IoT & CPS. The goal of the SPIC workshop is to bring together internationally leading academic and industrial researchers in an effort to identify and discuss the major technical challenges and recent results aimed at addressing all aspects of security and privacy for IoT and CPS.</div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><div>-----------------------------------------------</div><div>TOPICS OF INTEREST</div><div>-----------------------------------------------</div></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">To ensure complete coverage of the advances in this field, the SPIC Workshop solicits original contributions in, but not limited to, the following topical areas:</div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><ul><li style="margin-left:15px">Security, Privacy, and Trust for IoT and CPS</li><li style="margin-left:15px">Secure IoT and CPS architectures</li><li style="margin-left:15px">Detecting and preventing attacks in IoT devices and CPS</li><li style="margin-left:15px">Evaluation of Threats, Attacks, and Risks in IoT and cyber-physical devices</li><li style="margin-left:15px">Data Security and Privacy in the IoT</li><li style="margin-left:15px">Game Theory for IoT and CPS Security</li><li style="margin-left:15px">Security and Privacy in IoT RFID, sensors, actuator technologies, applications and services</li><li style="margin-left:15px">Security in Smart Grids and Smart Spaces</li><li style="margin-left:15px">Network-distributed sensor processing for security solutions in CPS</li><li style="margin-left:15px">Joint security and privacy aware protocol design</li><li style="margin-left:15px">Test-bed and performance metrics of security solutions in CPS</li><li style="margin-left:15px">Deployment and performance studies of secure CPS</li><li style="margin-left:15px">Secure Network Control Systems for CPS applications</li><li style="margin-left:15px">Architectures for secure hardware/software CPS </li></ul><div><div>-----------------------------------------------</div><div>SUBMISSION PROCEDURE</div><div>-----------------------------------------------</div><div>The workshop accepts only novel, previously unpublished papers.
