Participation to Workshops and Events

The 2nd International Workshop on Cyber-Physical Security for Critical Infrastructures Protection (CPS4CIP 2021)

• Co-located with the 26th European Symposium on Research in Computer Security (ESORICS) 2021

• Will be held in Darmstadt, Germany on October 04 – 08, 2021

The 2nd ECSCI Workshop on Critical Infrastructure Protection

To be held in the second half of 2021, the targeted topics for the workshop will be:

• Risk assessment for critical infrastructures

• Integrated cyber-physical security

• Cascading effects

• Combining safety and security

Sustainability of the ECSCI cluster

Possible ways to sustain the ECSCI cluster:

• Business models

• Coordination and support actions (CSA)

• Other funding sources within the EC

Joint scientific publications

Now available to download: 

• Cyber-Physical Threat Intelligence for Critical Infrastructures Security: A Guide to Integrated Cyber-Physical Protection of Modern Critical Infrastructures

• 1st ECSCI Workshop presentations

Future Opportunities for joint publications:

Special Issues on Cyber-Physical Security for Critical Infrastructures 

• Cyber-Physical Security for Critical Infrastructures

• Security and Privacy in IoT Systems (SPIoTS)

• Security and Trustworthiness in Industrial IoT

• The Second Open Access Book of the ECSCI cluster

A platform for combined safety and security for European Critical Infrastructures

Motivated by the long-term expected impact of the CIP projects "Convergence of safety and security standards, and the pre-establishment of certification mechanisms". 

The platform will support: 

• Combined Risk Assessment Process

• Combined Safety & Security Catalogue

• Supporting multi-dimensional decisions on safety and security

• Ontologies

Contribution to standards and regulations on the protection of Critical Infrastructures

Contributions on different topics:

• Securing the supply chain in different Critical Infrastructure sectors (air transport, energy, finance, industry, healthcare, telecommunication, water, ...);

• Guidelines on risk management in Critical Infrastructure Protection;

• Standards for threat intelligence sharing;

• EU Standardizations in safety and security;

• Overcoming the separation between Security and Safety;

• Links between safety & security and international organizations.

European Common Platform for cascading effects on the different Critical Infrastructures

Cross-sectoral and multi-risk approach to cascading effects 

A platform for a common picture of cascading effects affecting multiple critical infrastructures 

• Knowledge models and ontologies 

• Interfaces between the different Critical Infrastructures

• Common Cause Failures and Cascading Failures
