Call For Paper Text:

This 16th edition of the Foundations & Practice of Security (FPS)
Symposium will be held on December 11-13, 2023 in Bordeaux,
France. The 1st FPS Symposium was held in 2008, following the
Canada-France Meeting on Security held at the Simon Fraser University,
Vancouver, on December 06-08, 2007. Since then, the FPS Symposium has
been held annually, alternating between Canadian and French
locations. FPS took place in Grenoble, Toronto, Paris, Montréal, La
Rochelle, Montréal, Clermont-Ferrand, Québec City, Nancy, Montréal,
Toulouse, Montréal, Paris, Ottawa

Protecting the communication and data infrastructure of an
increasingly interconnected world has become vital to the normal
functioning of all aspects of our daily life. Many industries and
businesses, including healthcare, transportation, and manufacturing,
rely on edge computing to process data and deliver real-time services,
while enterprise networking is increasingly moving to the cloud to
improve scalability and reduce costs. As a result, security and cyber
resiliency have emerged as vital scientific disciplines that aim to
protect these critical systems against cyber threats and ensure the
integrity, availability, and confidentiality of data, applications,
and services. The multifaceted complexities of these requirements
necessitate collaboration and innovation from communities in
mathematics, computer science, and engineering.

 The aim of FPS is to discuss and exchange theoretical and practical
 ideas that address privacy, security, and resiliency issues in
 interconnected systems. It aims to provide scientific presentations
 as well as to establish links, and promote scientific collaborations,
 joint research programs, and student exchanges between institutions
 involved in this important and fast-moving research field.

We welcome submissions spanning the full range of theoretical and
applied work including user research, methods, tools, simulations,
demos, and practical evaluations. We also invite papers from
researchers and practitioners working in privacy, security,
resiliency, trustworthy data systems, and related areas to submit
their original papers. Special care will be given this year to
enhancing Cybersecurity and Resiliency with Artificial
Intelligence. Moreover, we are interested in data sharing, data
disclosure, individual tracking, and fake news regarding their impacts
on security and privacy.
