Scope of the
workshop:
The evolve of
networked
technologies, such
as the internet of
things and
cyber-physical
systems, possess
challenges base on
the highly limited
capabilities of
their infrastructure
devices and the type
of data that can be
processed by these
devices. Complicated
efforts are required
in suitable and
timely manners
against any detected
threats. Moreover,
new frameworks are
required to collect
and preserve
potential evidential
data in suitable and
timely manners as
well. To guarantee
proper
cyber-defenses and
strategies against
the expanding
landscape of
criminal activities
as well as rapidly
advancing network
technologies such as
SDN or 5G and 6G.
There is a growing
need for new
methodologies,
tools, and
techniques, capable
of extracting,
preserving, and
analyzing different
evidence trails in
various networked
services and devices
such as routers,
firewalls, web
proxies, and network
monitoring tools.
Additionally, there
is also a growing
need for research in
new systems that are
capable of analyzing
network traffic,
netflows, and
systems logs.
Satisfying these
demands will aid in
reconstructing the
timeline of the
cyber-crime/attack
under investigation
and, possibly, the
identification of
the potential
actor(s).
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.
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.
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
We also encourage
contributions
describing
innovative work in
the realm of
cybersecurity, cyber
defense, and digital
crimes.
