Computer Security: ESORICS 2020 International Workshops, CyberICPS, SECPRE, and ADIoT, Guildford, UK, September 14–18, 2020, Revised Selected Papers

Security problems in connected systems do not stop at the network boundary. They reach into industrial control, cyber-physical infrastructure, privacy requirements, and the everyday devices of the Internet of Things. This research proceedings volume gathers revised papers from three ESORICS 2020 workshops to examine those challenges from complementary angles.

Three workshops, one connected security landscape

The collection brings together work from CyberICPS, SECPRE, and ADIoT. Across the proceedings, contributors investigate how vulnerabilities emerge, how security and privacy requirements can be identified and assessed, and how attacks on connected systems may be detected or countered.

From industrial systems to IoT defenses

CyberICPS focuses on the security of industrial control systems and cyber-physical systems, including risks and responses relevant to critical, physically operating environments. SECPRE turns to the engineering of security and privacy requirements, including their assurance, evaluation, and relationship to regulatory obligations. ADIoT extends the discussion to attacks and defenses for Internet-connected devices.

A research collection for security specialists

Rather than a step-by-step introductory manual, this volume presents selected conference research for readers who want to engage with specific problems, approaches, and investigations in computer security. It will be most relevant to researchers, graduate students, and practitioners working in cybersecurity, privacy engineering, industrial systems, and IoT.

For readers tracking the evolving security needs of interconnected technologies, these proceedings offer a focused snapshot of research presented at the 2020 workshops.
