[with our apologizes for multiple receptions] Call for papers CNACYS’22 : Complex network Analysis for Cybersecurity Special session @ EICC’22 : European Interdisciplinary Cybersecurity conference Barcelona, Spain 15-16 June 2022 Website : https://www.fvv.um.si/eicc2022/cnacys.html <https://www.fvv.um.si/eicc2022/cnacys.html> Submission deadline : March, 20, 2022 Submission site : easychair <https://easychair.org/account/signin_timeout?l=Sd7s7TAJkNtEPTe7LQQDC2> Context The Internet, the Web, on-line social networks and almost all interactions in the cyber space can be modeled as complex networks sharing untrivial topological features such as spareness, small-world feature, heterogeneous degree distribution and high clustering coefficient. Complex network analysis has raised a lot of attention in recent years in a wide variety of fields including social, technological, biological, and power-grid networks. A rich algorithmic arsenal is already available to gain insights from such networks including identifying influential or vulnerable actors, link prediction, anomalies detection, community identification as well as understanding and predicting spreading phenomena on such networks. This special session aims at providing a venue for sharing latest advances in applying complex networks analysis to cybersecurity. List of topics A non-exhaustive list of topics include: - Complex network analysis for: intrusion detection, botnet activity detection, anomaly detection for network security and management, network traffic analysis - Attack graphs modeling and application, graph-based threat assessment - Multiplex et multilayer network analysis for cyber security - Autoencoders and representation learning for graphs, - Network embedding techniques for network security and management problems, - Parallel algorithms for dynamic and large-scale complex network - Network sampling and summarizing techniques, - Explainable Network analysis approaches for cybersecurity - Visualization of dynamic and large-scale networks Submission guidelines The official language of the conference is English. Papers are limited to 6 pages. All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference. The following paper categories are welcome: - Full papers reporting on original research findings (5-6 pages) - Short papers reporting on original research findings (2-4 pages) - Posters (extended abstracts) reporting on original research findings (1-2 pages) The conference will offer a Best paper award and Best poster award. The awards will be announced and bestowed at the conference closing session. The award will be conferred to the author(s) of awarded papers who will be present at the conference. The decision criterion will consider both the paper/poster quality and the oral presentation quality. Submitted papers have to use the ACM SigConf template <https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template>. All submitted research papers will undergo a double-blind reviewing process. Each paper will be reviewed by 2-3 reviewers. Submission of a paper implies that at least one of the authors will register and present the paper at the conference if the paper is accepted. Submit papers using EICC 2022 submission system <https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=eicc2022>. Select CNACYS Track when submitting your paper.
