Along with Intel Deutschland GmbH, Telefónica I+D, NCSR Demokritos, Hellenic Mediterranean University, Space Hellas, and Gruppo Maggioli, UBITECH co-organizes a special session on “Securing Future Networks” at the IEEE International Mediterranean Conference on Communications and Networking (IEEE MeditCom) that will take place 5-8 July 2021 in Athens, Greece. IEEE MeditCom will solicit research papers on a wide range of research topics, spanning both theoretical and systems research along with vertical technologies. The aforementioned special session calls for a more effective and efficient cybersecurity approach in 5G and future networks, not only addressing their new threats, but at the same time leveraging their unprecedented capabilities – such as service agility, dynamic network service deployment and edge processing- to introduce a new generation of security architectures and services.
This special session aims at bringing together network and security engineers to discuss challenges associated to, but not limited to, the following topics: Trust and attestation for Virtual Network Functions (VNFs); SDN security; Network slice isolation and security; Security assessment of multi-tenant network infrastructures and neutral host deployments; Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) evolution for future networks; Virtualisation of security functions; Big Data Analytics for incident detection and classification, Endpoint Detection and Reponse; AI for cybersecurity at the edge; Zero-trust architectures; 5G Managed Security Services; Integrity assurance for cyber-physical systems and embedded devices; Endpoint Detection and Response; Threat Intelligence sharing; Security Orchestration, Automation and Reponse (SOAR); Standardization and Validation of cyber-security technologies and trust techniques.
The deadline for submitting your papers is April 10, 2021. For more info, please have a look at the respective Call for Papers.
