Second International Workshop for securing IoT systems using BigData

IEEE 10th World Forum on Internet of Things

10-13 November 2024 // Ottawa, Canada

Introduction to workshop

We are pleased to unveil the second edition following the successful launch of the first edition.

In today's world, cyber intrusions are happening at an unprecedented speed, with both attackers and defenders utilizing advanced techniques in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML). The vulnerability of IoT systems is particularly noteworthy, and the sheer volume of data generated by these activities makes it challenging for the human workforce to monitor and detect intrusions effectively. Therefore, it is crucial to automate intrusion detection and monitoring in IoT to keep pace with the rapid advancements in technology. We propose hosting research presentations from both academia and industry focusing on the application of ML and AI in securing IoT systems.

Securing IoT is a specialized field within cybersecurity that requires expertise in IoT-specific operating systems and network capabilities. General cybersecurity professionals working in Security Operation Centers may not have the necessary knowledge and skills to identify IoT-related attacks. Therefore, it is essential to bring together experts in this area to share ideas and collaborate, thereby fostering a community of research and practice. Our aim is to create a platform where researchers and practitioners can come together to address the unique challenges associated with securing IoT.
