Sponsored by
IEEE Computer Society and IEEE Technical Committee of Scalable Computing (TCSC)
Co-located conferences: ICA3PP 2016 and IUCC 2016
INTRODUCTION
A large fraction of the population in the world now spends a great deal of time in
cyberspace. Cyberspace has become a critical infrastructure that is embedded in
almost all other critical infrastructures and enables every movement of human society.
It is thus very much in the public interest to have a safe and secure cyberspace.
In the past several years, there has been large number of attacks in cyberspace, such
as attacks on the Internet, attacks on embedded/real-time computing and control systems,
and attacks on dedicated computing facilities. Many research efforts have been made to
achieve cyberspace safety and security, such as blocking and limiting the impact of
compromise, enabling accountability, promoting deployment of defense systems, and
deterring potential attackers and penalizing attackers. The 8th International Symposium
on Cyberspace Safety and Security provides a leading edge forum to foster interaction
between researchers and developers with the cyberspace safety and security communities,
and to give attendees an opportunity to network with experts in this area. It focusses
on Cyberspace Safety and Security, such as authentication, access control, availability,
integrity, privacy, confidentiality, dependability and sustainability issues of cyberspace.
