17th ACM International System and Storage Conference,
Tel Aviv-Yaffo, Israel, September 23-25, 2024.
[posted here 2/5/24]
The ACM International Systems and Storage Conference (SYSTOR) is
an excellent international forum for interaction across the systems research
community. The program includes both innovative, peer-reviewed research
papers in the broad area of systems, as well as distinguished keynote
lecturers, a poster session, and social events. ACM SYSTOR is designed
to appeal to academic and industrial researchers and practitioners,
welcoming both students and seasoned professionals. SYSTOR has
traditionally welcomed academic and industrial papers in systems
including storage, cloud and distributed systems, networking, and systems
security, broadly construed. While continuing on this tradition,
this year, we are broadening the scope to also include research
on systems issues in AI and/or sustainability, including those that
involve workload optimization, data processing, lifecycle of systems,
carbon footprint transparency, and system re-designs. SYSTOR encourages
submissions that describe results from experimental system prototypes,
as well as experience papers describing practical deployments, and
valuable lessons learned from them. Topics of interest
include System Security and Trust.

HealthSec 2024
Workshop on Cybersecurity in Healthcare,
Held in conjunction with the 31st ACM Conference on Computer and Communications Security (CCS 2024),
Salt Lake City, Utah USA, October 14, 2024.
[posted here 5/6/24]
In its most basic form, healthcare is gathering data, interpreting data
into information, and transforming information into current human knowledge that can
be acted upon, with each of these stages open to unintended errors and/or malicious
subversion. These stages do not occur within a vacuum but rather within our
existing infrastructures and social system with all their current limitations,
systemic bias, and exploitable vulnerabilities. While a similar characterization
can be made about security in other applied domains, healthcare is undergoing a
dramatic transformation, arguably the next technological revolution, presenting
immediate opportunities for improvement along with corresponding challenges in security.
ur desire is to bring together diverse researchers from academia, government,
and the healthcare industry to report on latest research efforts. As this is
the inaugural workshop focusing on cybersecurity in healthcare, we aim to
encourage, jumpstart, and grow excellent interdisciplinary contributions at the
forefront of research.

DASC 2024
22nd IEEE International Conference on Dependable, Autonomic and Secure Computing,
Boracay Island, Malay, Philippines, November 5-8, 2024.
[posted here 4/1/24]
As computer and communication systems, and other systems such as Cyber-Physical
Systems (CPS), Internet of Things (IoT), and Autonomous Robotic Systems, become increasingly
large and complex, their Dependability and Security play critical roles in supporting
next-generation science, engineering, and commercial applications. It remains a challenge
to design, analyze, evaluate, and improve the dependability and security of a large-scale
computing environment. Trusted and autonomic computing/autonomous systems need synergistic
research efforts covering many disciplines, from natural sciences to social sciences. It
requires scientific and technological advances in a variety of fields, as well as new
software, architectures, and communication technology that support the integration of
the constituent technologies. IEEE DASC 2024 aims to bring together computer scientists,
industrial engineers, and researchers to discuss and exchange theoretical and
implementation results, novel designs, work-in-progress, experience, case studies, and
trend-setting ideas in the areas of dependability, security, trust, and/or autonomic

ICSS 2024
10th Industrial Control System Security Workshop,
Held in conjunction with the Annual Computer Security Applications Conference (ACSAC),
Waikiki, Hawaii, Dec 10, 2024.
[posted here 8/12/24]
Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) and industrial control
systems (ICS) monitor and control a wide range of critical industrial and
infrastructure processes, such as water treatment, power generation and transmission,
oil and gas refining, and manufacturing. Furthermore, the Industrial Internet of
Things (IIoT) is rapidly expanding the interconnectivity of ICS environments and
introducing many new threats. These environments have been identified as a key
target of more generic threats (ransomware, e.g., CL0p), along with more recent
tailored nation-state threats targeting electric transmission and distribution
systems (e.g., COSMICENERGY).
The essential requirement for high availability in SCADA and industrial control
systems, along with the use of resource-constrained computing devices, legacy
operating systems, and proprietary software applications, limits the applicability
of traditional information security solutions. The goal of this workshop is to
explore new techniques that are more effective and efficient at improving the
security and resilience of critical control systems in the face of emerging threats.
