1st International Workshop on Cyber Forensics and Advanced Threat Investigations in Emerging Networks (CFATI 2020), Virtual Workshop- 2nd of November 2020.
The evolution of networked technologies, such as the internet of things and cyber-physical systems, possess challenges based on the highly limited capabilities of their infrastructure devices and the type of data that can be processed by these devices. Complicated efforts are required in suitable and timely manners against any detected threats. Moreover, new frameworks are required to collect and preserve potential evidential data in suitable and timely manners as well. To guarantee proper cyber-defenses and strategies against the expanding landscape of criminal activities as well as rapidly advancing network technologies such as SDN or 5G and 6G.
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.
CFATI1 2020 is a virtual workshop will be held in the 2nd of November 2020.

This Year Keynote:
The Cat-and-Mouse Game with iOS Forensics
By Yuri Gubanov, CEO and founder of Belkasoft.
The talk will focus on the role of checkm8 exploit and checkra1n jailbreak in facilitating the acquisition of a full file system. More details about the Keynote on https://cfati.conceptechint.net/program.html
Scope of The Workshop:
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
We also encourage contributions describing innovative work in the realm of cybersecurity, cyber defense, and digital crimes.
Paper Format
The submitted paper must be formatted according to the guidelines of Procedia Computer Science, MS Word Template, Elsevier.
Paper Length
Submitted technical papers must be no longer than 6 pages for full papers, including all figures, tables, and references.
Paper Submission
Authors are requested to submit their papers electronically using the easy-chair system in PDF format before the deadline.
Submit your workshop paper https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cfati2020
The submission processes will be managed by easychair.org. If you have used this system before, you can use the same username and password. If this is your first time using EasyChair, you will need to register for an account by clicking “I have no EasyChair account” button. Upon completion of registration, you will get a notification email from the system and you are ready for submitting your paper. You can upload and re-upload the paper to the system.
Publication
All the accepted original papers as for preprint will be available through our CFATI website as a digital book with an ISBN number. We can also invite accepted short papers if the authors can extend their manuscripts to be suitable for the special issue through a full review process. We will ask the authors to improve their accepted papers within one month after finishing the workshop. At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register for free without the need for in-person participation (remote participation is possible).
Selected papers presented at the workshop, after further revision, will have the opportunity to be published in special issues in indexed and/or high impact factor journals (details on the website).
