35th IEEE Computer Security Foundations Symposium

The Computer Security Foundations Symposium (CSF) is an annual conference for researchers in computer security, to examine current theories of security, the formal models that provide a context for those theories, and techniques for verifying security.

"Since their inception 24 years ago, Black Hat Briefings continue to provide security professionals with a place to learn the very latest in information security risks, research and trends. Leading security researchers from around the world take the stage each year to share their latest work and exploits in a friendly, vendor-neutral environment. Attendees will experience groundbreaking research on topics ranging from vulnerabilities within popular consumer devices, to critical international infrastructure threats, and everything in between."

"The HOPE conference is multifaceted, and offers a variety of session types for all knowledge and experience levels -- total beginners to experts to the curious.

"Cyber-Charged is a day camp program that teaches first principles of cybersecurity in a fun, hands-on environment. Students learn about the building blocks of a computer, programming in python, computer operating systems and software, cybersecurity first principles, cyber-threats, cyber-defenses, network security, firewalls, and virus scanning. The experience expected of campers in cybersecurity and computing is beginning to intermediate."

"Hosted by The Society for Modeling and Simulation International (SCS), the Annual Modeling and Simulation Conference (ANNSIM) is the flagship conference of SCS to cover state-of-the-art developments in Modeling & Simulation (M&S). We invite original contributions to the theory and practice of modeling and simulation in any scientific or engineering discipline. The conference includes keynote speeches presented by technology and industry leaders, technical sessions, professional development tutorials, as well as vendor exhibits. Scientists, engineers, managers, educators, and business professionals who develop or use M&S methodologies and tools are invited to participate and present original contributions."

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

• Formal models for cybersecurity simulation
• Cybersecurity evaluation and assessment approaches
• Test beds and experimental infrastructure for cybersecurity simulation
• Hybrid simulations for cyber physical system security
• Modeling and Analysis of Networked security systems
• Modeling security and privacy in mobile and cellular networks
• Modeling security for future Internet architectures
• Risk assessment and management
• Systems engineering for security

"The future of the federal government will comprise a workforce that better represents the diverse population it serves, and agencies are strategizing on how to make this a reality. In many ways, these initiatives will impact technology priorities and processes, including recruitment efforts, Agile frameworks, artificial intelligence, data management and more. With women representing only a quarter of the entire STEM field, the calling for women technology leaders to public service is vital and urgent. These prominent women discuss the solutions to challenges many technology teams are facing governmentwide."

"The conference will feature tutorials, technical paper presentations, and distinguished keynote speeches."

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to security systems.

The 22nd Privacy Enhancing Technologies Symposium

The annual Privacy Enhancing Technologies Symposium (PETS) brings together privacy experts from around the world to present and discuss recent advances and new perspectives on research in privacy technologies. PETS/PoPETs is the premier venue for novel applied and/or theoretical research into the design, analysis, experimentation, or fielding of privacy-enhancing technologies.

Early bird registration deadline: June 11, 2022.

"The Design Automation Conference (DAC) is recognized as the premier event for the design and design automation of electronic chips to systems. DAC offers outstanding training, education, exhibits and superb networking opportunities for designers, researchers, tool developers and vendors. The conference is sponsored by the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and is supported by ACM's Special Interest Group on Design Automation (SIGDA) and IEEE's Council on Electronic Design Automation (CEDA)."

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to security and privacy.

"ExploitCon Bellevue 2022 focuses on providing attendees with technical information from industry experts in order to educate the IT community on advancements in Cyber Security and Information Technology. Join this incredible community and enjoy presentations from local speakers on a wide range of IT topics, connect with peers and other industry experts, or get hands on experience at the conference's villages."

"The International Conference on Information Fusion has long been recognised as a premier forum for researchers and practitioners to exchange ideas in the field of information fusion and its impacts on our society. Authors (researchers, students and practitioners) are invited to submit papers describing advances in the theory and applications of information fusion."

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to application security.
