1st International Workshop on Cyber Forensics and Advanced Threat
Investigations in Emerging Networks (CFATI 2020)

CFATI 2020 will be held in conjunction with the 11th International
Conference on Emerging Ubiquitous Systems and Pervasive Networks
(EUSPN 2020) which is co-organized on November 2-5, 2020, Madeira,
Portugal.

Scope of the workshop:

The main motivation for this Workshop is to bring together researchers
and practitioners working on cyber forensics and threat investigations
for emerging networks to disseminate current research issues and
advances. Original technical papers describing new, state-of-the-art
research will be considered. The Workshop welcomes submissions that
evaluate existing research results by reproducing experiments. The aim
of this workshop is to provide insight for the discussion of the major
research challenges and achievements on various topics of interest.

Papers on practical as well as on theoretical topics and problems in
various topics related to cyber forensics and threat investigations
are invited, with special emphasis on novel techniques and tools to
collect data from networked devices and services in emerging networks
(such as the ones can be found in cyber-physical systems and Internet
of things). Topics include (but are not limited to):

· Advanced threat investigations, forensic and anti-forensic techniques
· Cooperative and distributed forensics and threat investigations
· Data exfiltration techniques from networked devices and services
(e.g. cyber-physical systems, and Internet-of-Things)
· Attack detection, traceback and attribution in SDN, 5G and 6G
· Methods for reconstruction of internet activities in SDN, 5G and 6G
· Forensics and threat investigations in IoT
· Forensics and threat investigations in peer-to-peer, social, and
cloud networks
· Vulnerability & threat detection and mitigation techniques for
networked services
· Novel large-scale investigations techniques to analyze intelligence
data sets and logs
· Tools and services for cyber forensics and threat investigations
· VoIP forensics, VoIPoW forensics
