Third Workshop on Enabling Security, Trust, and Privacy in 6G Wireless Systems

IEEE Global Communications Conference

8-12 December 2024 // Cape Town, South Africa

IMPORTANT DATES

Paper submission: 15 July 2024 • Acceptance notification: 1 September 2024 • Camera-ready due: 1 October 2024

This workshop aims to bring together practitioners and researchers from both academia and industry for discussion and technical presentations on wireless security. The focus is on fundamental and practically relevant questions related to the challenges arising on the way towards trustworthy and resilient wireless communications. It also aims to provide the industry with an insight into the development of practical security solutions for future wireless networks. In line with such objectives, original contributions are solicited in topics of interest to include, but not limited to, the following:

Physical layer security for 6G
Trust and trustworthiness in 6G
Secure signal processing
Information theoretic security
Security verification and performance metrics
Cross-layer security solutions
5G/6G security (false base station attacks, sidelink security, integration of new services)
Zero-touch security solutions
Context-aware, semantic security
Covert wireless communications
Physical layer authentication and key agreement
Security and privacy for IoTs, HetNets, massive MIMO systems, and mm-wave, THz transmission
Security and privacy of joint communications and sensing / integrated sensing and communication

Interplay between emerging technologies (intelligent reflecting surface, joint communication and sensing, AI) and their role towards trustworthy communication
Hardware security
Attack/defense modelling (active and jamming attacks, man-in-the-middle attacks, etc.)
Post-Quantum security and cryptography
Security challenges for AI/ML technologies
Security of space information systems
Optical wireless technology for secure connectivity
Security mechanisms for zero-energy devices
Security-aware access control
AI-based security solutions for wireless systems
Prototype, practical testbeds, and performance evaluation
