1st International Workshop on Cyber Forensics and Advanced Threat Investigations in Emerging Networks (CFATI 2020)

CFATI 2020 will be held in conjunction with the 11th International Conference on Emerging Ubiquitous Systems and Pervasive Networks (EUSPN 2020) which is co-organized on November 2-5, 2020, Madeira, Portugal.

Scope of the workshop:

The main motivation for this Workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners working on cyber forensics and threat investigations for emerging networks to disseminate current research issues and advances. Original technical papers describing new, state-of-the-art research will be considered. The Workshop welcomes submissions that evaluate existing research results by reproducing experiments. The aim of this workshop is to provide insight for the discussion of the major research challenges and achievements on various topics of interest.

Papers on practical as well as on theoretical topics and problems in various topics related to cyber forensics and threat investigations are invited, with special emphasis on novel techniques and tools to collect data from networked devices and services in emerging networks (such as the ones can be found in cyber-physical systems and Internet of things). Topics include (but are not limited to):

· Advanced threat investigations, forensic and anti-forensic techniques
· Cooperative and distributed forensics and threat investigations
· Data exfiltration techniques from networked devices and services (e.g. cyber-physical systems, and Internet-of-Things)
· Attack detection, traceback, and attribution in SDN, 5G, and 6G
· Methods for reconstruction of internet activities in SDN, 5G, and 6G
· Forensics and threat investigations in IoT
· Forensics and threat investigations in peer-to-peer, social, and cloud networks
· Vulnerability & threat detection and mitigation techniques for networked services
· Novel large-scale investigations techniques to analyze intelligence data sets and logs
· Tools and services for cyber forensics and threat investigations
· VoIP forensics, VoIPoW forensics
