The Fifth International Conference on Cyber-Technologies and Cyber-Systems CYBER 2020
Onsite and Online Options: In order to accommodate a large number of situations, we are offering the option for either physical presence or virtual participation.
The increased size and complexity of the communications and the networking infrastructures are making it difficult the investigation of the resiliency, security assessment, safety and crimes. Mobility, anonymity, counterfeiting, are characteristics that add more complexity in Internet of Things and Cloud-based solutions. Cyber-physical systems exhibit a strong link between the computational and physical elements. Techniques for cyber resilience, cyber security, protecting the cyber infrastructure, cyber forensic and cyber crimes have been developed and deployed. Some of new solutions are nature-inspired and social-inspired leading to self-secure and self-defending systems. Despite the achievements, security and privacy, disaster management, social forensics, and anomalies/crimes detection are challenges within cyber-systems.
CYBER 2020, The Fifth International Conference on Advances in Cyber-Technologies and Cyber-Systems, continues the inaugural event covering many aspects related to cyber-systems and cyber-technologies considering the issues mentioned above and potential solutions. It is also intended to illustrate appropriate current academic and industry cyber-system projects, prototypes, and deployed products and services.
We solicit both academic, research, and industrial contributions. We welcome technical papers presenting research and practical results, position papers addressing the pros and cons of specific proposals, such as those being discussed in the standard fora or in industry consortia, survey papers addressing the key problems and solutions on any of the above topics short papers on work in progress, and panel proposals.
Industrial presentations are not subject to the format and content constraints of regular submissions. We expect short and long presentations that express industrial position and status.
Tutorials on specific related topics and panels on challenging areas are encouraged.
The topics suggested by the conference can be discussed in term of concepts, state of the art, research, standards, implementations, running experiments, applications, and industrial case studies. Authors are invited to submit complete unpublished papers, which are not under review in any other conference or journal in the following, but not limited to, topic areas.
All topics and submission formats are open to both research and industry contributions.

ENISA Annual Privacy Forum
The value of personal data in the online world has significantly increased over the last years as electronic products, services and processes have permeated every fold of everyday life. Limitations in the transparency, the functionality and interconnectivity of online and communication services increases the risk of having personal data processed out of control of any accountable person or organization or simply becoming exposed to all sorts of privacy threats.
The EU legal framework on personal data protection is key in an effort to better control the processing of personal data while ensuring an adequate level of protection. Even the best legislative efforts cannot keep up to speed with the pace of innovative technology and business models that challenge the way personal data is processed and privacy is protected across the EU and beyond; therefore, examining what is at stake and where threats thereto originate from becomes of paramount importance.
Against this background, ENISA, DG CONNECT and the Católica University of Portugal, Lisbon School of Law are organizing the Annual Privacy Forum (APF) 2020.
Due to the evolving COVID-19 situation, the organizers have unanimously decided to postpone the organization of the APF for October 2020.
The exact dates will be communicated in due time, once the organizers have more information on how the overall situation evolves.

Chatham House Cyber 2020 – Opportunities and challenges in a new decade
For cyberspace, the last decade has been one marked by rapid technological development, extensive global growth, and its ever-greater importance as part of our everyday lives. The coming decade looks to be equally significant, with the increased territorialisation of cyberspace, emerging technologies such as 5G and AI, and both the more immediate and longer term impacts of COVID-19, all already having a profound impact on the international cyber security and governance landscape.
As Chatham House celebrates its centenary year, Cyber 2020 will explore the key developments in cyberspace that will likely shape the coming decade.
What impact are new technologies and innovations having on conversations around cyber governance and security?
How are cybercriminals utilising new technologies to conduct ever more sophisticated attacks?
In what different ways has COVID-19 impacted the international cybersecurity landscape?
As technology enables increasingly sophisticated data to be collected on the individual, how can we ensure its effective regulation and security?
How are different regional players shaping conversations around cyber security and governance?
How can different actors work together to create an effective and inclusive common framework(s) for international cyber governance?
