## Call for papers

SCOPE CRITIS 2018, the 13th edition of the CRITIS series of conferences, seeks to promote innovative research and key achievements in the field of critical (information) infrastructure protection and resilience. The CRITIS series of conferences foster the cross-sector dialogue between relevant stakeholders: academics, practitioners, critical (information) infrastructure operators, industry, defence sector and policy-makers. Moreover, CRITIS aims to encourage and inspire early stage and open-minded researchers in this demanding multi-disciplinary field of research. Outstanding research performance demonstrated by young researchers may compete for the Young CRITIS Award (YCA). TOPICS CRITIS 2018 covers three thematic foci. Paper submission is encouraged but not limited to the following topics. Note: Definitions for the keywords used in this Call for Papers can be found in the online glossary CIPedia©. Topic 1: Technologies: Innovative responses for the protection of cyber-physical systems Critical (Information) Infrastructure Protection (CIP and CIIP) Cyber security in C(I)I systems Self-healing, self-protection, and self-management architectures for C(I)I Fault tolerant control for cyber-physical systems / C(I)I Modelling and analysis of cyber-physical systems / C(I)I Modelling, Simulation, Analysis and Validation approaches to C(I)IP Topic 2: Advances in C(I)IP organisation: Policies, good practices and lessons learned International approaches to C(I)IP including identification of C(I)I elements Risk management, impact and consequence analysis regarding C(I)I Coherent prevention, preparedness / exercises, incident management / mitigation, and recovery approaches to C(I)I Resilience and survivability of C(I)I as complex cyber-physical systems C(I)IP policies at international, national and cross-border levels, e.g. public-private partnerships Cross-border issues regarding EU’s Network and Information Security Directive C(I)IP R&D agenda at national and international levels Economics, investments and incentives for C(I)IP Defence of civilian CI and CII in conflicts with cyber warfare elements Forensics and attribution in attacked C(I)I Infrastructure, architectural and technology changes in the energy sector which may impact the sector approach to C(I)I or challenge other C(I)I-sectors, e.g. smart grids and energy supply in smart city developments Impact of geopolitical & social factors and threats Topic 3: Advances in Human Factors, decision support, and cross-sector CI(I)P approaches – focus on end-users Analysis of Human Factor and Security Awareness in C(I)IP Advanced decision support for mitigating C(I)I related emergencies Social aspects and public communication in C(I)IP Psycho-social dimensions of crisis management and intervention with C(I)I Training for C(I)IP and effective intervention Coping with Social Media in C(I)I-related crisis management Recent trends in cyber economy (clouds, quasi-monopolies, e-currencies etc.) and implications for C(I)I and C(I)IP Young CRITIS Award (YCA) Research papers submitted to compete for the Young CRITIS Award shall cover one or more of the subjects mentioned above. More about YCA 2018.
