ICDF2C 2026 (EAI International Conference on Digital Forensics & Cyber Crime) is a CCF C conference held in Reykjavík, Iceland on 2026-09-08. The paper submission deadline is 2026-03-27. Acceptance notifications are sent on 2026-04-30.
Scope
Theme: Cyber analytics and forensics in the era of emerging threats
Novel cyber threats are continuously emerging, catalysed by the rapid deployment of Large Language Model and other AI across many domains which increases the threat surface in many sectors such as Smart Industry, Fintech and digital government. The focus of this conference is to provide a platform for discussing these emerging threats and to identify priorities for the community to target with the next generation of cyber analytics. We particularly welcome research which studies the dynamics between human factors and AI technologies and the corresponding impact upon cybersecurity and forensics.
