Introduction

Since 1997, the French Ministry of the Armies organizes every year a symposium dedicated to cybersecurity, bringing together governmental, industrial and academic actors. This event aims at a double objective, scientific and operational, bringing together for three days experts, researchers, practitioners and decision-makers, for an overview on a particular subject. The chosen theme is approached from an operational as well as theoretical perspective, with a marked didactic dimension to help professionals from different sectors to share a common understanding of often complex issues. This interdisciplinary approach to computer security enables field users to study and anticipate theoretical or technical advances.

Recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI) and in particular in machine learning promise to revolutionize many areas. Broad cybersecurity (software, hardware, networks, etc.) is already taking advantage of these advances, whether in the design or analysis phases, or to defend a deployed system. 
These intelligent systems may be the target of new classes of attacks that aim to deceive or influence their behavior. For example, there is the Microsoft Tay chatbot. 
Moreover, the frequent lack of explicability of decision-making, and the difficulty of analyzing their behavior, can present a risk for the systems that integrate them and hinder their adoption.

The 2018 edition of the C & ESAR conference focuses on these two aspects: the contributions of artificial intelligence for cybersecurity, and the security risks specific to artificial intelligences.

Guidlines

Terms of submission

  • First step: the communication proposals (3 to 6 pages) are to be submitted by 29 June 2018 via https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cesar2018 in PDF format. This should include the title of the communication, its category ( analysis, protection-defense-detection, attack, qualification-certification), the names and surnames of the authors as well as their affiliation, the e-mail address of the principal author, an abstract (10 lines max.) And a list of keywords. Authors will be notified of acceptance or rejection on September 5 , 2018 .
  • Second step: the authors send no later than 2 October 2018 a final version of the communication (8 to 16 pages) to contact@cesar-conference.org , copy to benoit-f.martin@intradef.gouv.fr. The authors undertake in this final version to take into account the comments of the reviewers sent during the notification of the decision.
  • Instructions for the final version of the article : PDF document in A4 without page numbers, following the Springer model Reading Notes in Computer Science 
  • (LaTeX model: ftp://ftp.springer.de/pub/tex/latex/ llncs / latex2e / llncs2e.zip ; 
  • Word template: ftp://ftp.springer.de/pub/tex/latex/llncs/word/splnproc1110.zip ).
  • Languages and selection criteria: the art communications can be written in French or English. The selection criteria will mainly respect the theme of the conference and call for papers, clarity and educational effort. The technical presentations will be considered as long as they also present a state of the art of a field and not only a particular result. Communications must not be commercial. Accepted papers will be published in the Proceedings of the Symposium .
