We propose the first edition of the workshop on Cyber Security Education for Industry and Academia (CSE4IA) to be co-located with the next edition of IS-EUD 2023. Cybersecurity education has become increasingly important in recent years due to the shortage of cybersecurity professionals in the international job market. To address this challenge, it is necessary to focus on three contexts and their interconnections: Industry, Academia, and Public Administration. This integration should result in the development of new education and professional training programs, as well as innovative teaching tools that can effectively train end-users (students and professionals) to handle real-world scenarios. In addition, their joint work will lead to the identification of the key elements of cybersecurity education that are relevant to end-users in the context of end-user development and provide examples of practical measures that end-users can take to protect themselves and their technology solutions from cyber attacks. The aim of this workshop is to create a community for both researchers and practitioners to discuss new ideas and present new research contributions on cybersecurity education.

Submission Guidelines

All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference. The following paper categories are welcome:

• Regular papers will be up to 6 pages and will report original research on how cybersecurity and education can support Academia and Industry to reduce the gap between demand (workplace, recruitment) and supply (qualification, training).
• Vision papers, up to 4 pages, will report novel ideas about the application of the role of cybersecurity education in Academia and Industry.
• Presentation abstracts will report experiences from corporations or previously accepted papers that are relevant to the workshop.

Regular and vision papers will be part of the proceedings, while presentation abstracts will not be included in the proceedings.

All papers should be submitted through Easychair in PDF format, using the “CEUR Template”: http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-XXX/CEURART.zip
