Venue: Hotel Astarea, Dubrovnik (CROATIA)

Cyber security is becoming an increasingly important factor in protecting critical infrastructure. New technologies such as 5G networks, artificial intelligence, drones, etc. are becoming more widely available and, as such, are being used in many industries but are also a threat to the same industry. At the same time, new technologies and advances in the IT industry are emerging and can advance or completely replace current methods.

CYSEC aims to become a well-established annual conference dedicated to cyber security and protection of critical infrastructure. Ignited by one small Croatian R&D company and recognised from the University of Applied Sciences Velika Gorica, it strives to become a place where researchers, academia and industry meet and discuss new technologies, ideas and use cases to build strong cyber security solutions for protection of critical infrastructure.

The conference will consist of a series of panels and events which will showcase a thriving community all around the globe, combining experience and knowledge, both from the industry and academia thus brining multilateral and multi-sectoral cooperation. A scientific and professional program will be organized through the opening ceremony, numerous lectures by top experts and Meet&Greet events for distinguished guests from home and abroad. It will bean excellent opportunity for academia to meet and discuss today’s research novelties with companies dealing with these issues on daily basis. To make it easier to find the right partners, all participants will be able to use matchmaking application. The participants will be presented with a number of selected current topics and papers in the form of presentations and the opportunity to comment them with the authors. The conference will include an expert program focusing on the presentation of available commercial tools and software solutions designed to protect critical infrastructure. Through a series of exhibit booths, poster presentations and perhaps an interactive workshop, conference attendees will gain insights into how to improve critical infrastructure security using new scientific methods and specialized tools.

The conference will feature a dedicated session about projects that are covering the main topics that will be discussed. So far the H2020 EU projects that will be present are PROACTIVE, SecureHospitals, SATIE, PANACEA and Sauron.

The event is intended for both scientists and experts in the field of critical infrastructure protection, cyber security, information and communication technologies, crisis management, security and risk management, and other experts in the field.
