DESCRIPTION

As we close the second decade of the 21st century, modern societies
are becoming dependent on information, automation, and communication
technologies more than ever. Managing security in the resulting
systems, many of which are safety critical, poses significant
challenges. The 10th Conference on Decision and Game Theory for
Security focuses on protection of heterogeneous, large-scale and
dynamic cyber-physical systems as well as managing security risks
faced by critical infrastructures through rigorous and
practically-relevant analytical methods. GameSec 2019 invites novel,
high-quality theoretical and practically-relevant contributions, which
apply decision and game theory, as well as related techniques such as
optimization, machine learning, dynamic control and mechanism design,
to build resilient, secure, and dependable networked systems. The goal
of GameSec 2019 is to bring together academic and industrial
researchers in an effort to identify and discuss the major technical
challenges and recent results that highlight the connections between
game theory, control, distributed optimization, machine learning,
economic incentives and real-world security, reputation, trust and
privacy problems.

TOPICS INCLUDE (BUT NOT RESTRICTED TO)
 - Game theory, control, and mechanism design for security and privacy
 - Decision making for cybersecurity and security requirements engineering
 - Security and privacy for the Internet-of-Things, cyber-physical
          systems, cloud computing, resilient control systems, and
          critical infrastructure
 - Pricing, economic incentives, security investments, and cyber
          insurance for dependable and secure systems
 - Risk assessment and security risk management 
 - Security and privacy of wireless and mobile communications,
          including user location privacy
 - Socio-technological and behavioral approaches to security
 - Empirical and experimental studies with game, control, or
          optimization theory-based analysis for security and privacy
 - Adversarial Machine Learning and the role of AI in system security

SPECIAL SESSIONS ON "ADVERSARIAL AI" AND "CYBER-PHYSICAL SYSTEM SECURITY"	

The conference will have special sessions focusing on timely and
exciting research topics "Adversarial AI" and "Cyber-physical system
security". Researchers, who wish to present novel results on these
topics are encouraged to consider these sessions.
