CSR IOSEC
2025 IEEE CSR Workshop on Information and Operational Technology Security (IOSEC)
Chania, Crete, Greece (in-person event) • August 4–6, 2025
The recent advancements in Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) have given the opportunity to private and public entities, including Critical Infrastructures and other Operators of Essential Services (OES), to offer new and innovative services while lowering their operational costs. These advancements however, are often hastily adopted without proper evaluation of their impact on security, leaving current Information Technology (IT) and Operation Technology (OT) systems vulnerable to various kinds of cyber-attacks. The workshop aims to bring together viewpoints from diverse areas to explore the commonalities of security problems and solutions for advancing the collective science and practice of IT and OT security.
The CSR IOSEC workshop will accept high-quality research papers presenting strong theoretical contributions, applied research and innovation results obtained from funded cyber-security and resilience projects, and industrial papers that promote contributions on technology development and contemporary implementations.
