Smart environments such as smart homes, smart industries or smart cities are envisioned to improve the interaction between humans and their surroundings. Collectively, these systems create dynamic and complex cyber infrastructures with diverse requirements in terms of their security and privacy. Also, the interactions between these systems create new threat landscapes with unique interactions and interdependencies between adversarial actions and their impact. This impact can be manifested differently, in the physical, electronic and natural domains for the same attack vectors.  These smart environments include systems and networks that process and exchange information to. In these environments, the security of the systems, networks, and data plays a fundamental role since user data is gathered, processed and exchanged. Certain issues have been raised in terms of the privacy implications of machine-to-machine (M2M) and human-to-machine (H2M) communications in these environments. The ability of these systems to preserve privacy-enhancing security operations remains an open research and technical challenge with legal and regulatory ramifications as part of their deployment, use and abuse.

The Conference on Cybersecurity and Privacy in Smart Environments aims to bring together worldwide researchers to share and discuss recent security related challenges and opportunities arising when deploying smart spaces and environments.

The conference will count on defined Keynote Speakers that will give their contribution to discuss challenges and opportunities in the areas of the conference.

This event is organized by EAI.

EAI – European Alliance for Innovation is a non-profit organization and a professional community established in cooperation with the European Commission to empower the global research and innovation, and to promote cooperation between European and International ICT communities.

EAI’s vision is to foster excellence in research and innovation on the principles of transparency, objectivity, equality, and openness. Our guiding principle is community cooperation to create better research, provide fair recognition of excellence and transform best ideas into commercial value proposition.

EAI‘s mission is to create an environment that rewards excellence transparently, and builds recognition objectively regardless of age, economic status or country of origin, where no membership fees or closed door committees stand in the way of your research career.

Through these shared values, EAI leads the way toward advancing the world of research and innovation, empowering individuals and institutions for the good of society to fully benefit from the digital revolution.
