About C&ESAR

Every year since 1997, the French Ministry of Defense organizes a cybersecurity conference, called C&ESAR. This conference is now one of the main events of the European Cyber Week (ECW) organized every fall in Rennes, Brittany, France.

The goal of C&ESAR is to bring together governmental, industrial, and academic stakeholders interested in cybersecurity. This event, both educational and scientific, gathers experts, researchers, practitioners and decision-makers. This inter-disciplinary approach allows operational practitioners to learn about and anticipate future technological inflection points, and for industry and academia to confront research and product development to operational realities.

Summary of the call for papers

C&ESAR solicits submissions on any subject related to cybersecurity. The scope covers:

  • all lifecycle steps and activities, from system requirement elicitation to disposal/retirement of equipment and systems, including for example law and regulation, DevSecOps loops, operational cyber defense, penetration testing, or misinformation;
  • all types of products or context, including for example networks, embedded systems, industrial systems, personal devices, IoT, cloud or edge computing.

C&ESAR welcomes papers up to 16 pages (without minimal size for the initial submission). C&ESAR is interested in the following paper types:

  • papers describing original and innovative work;
  • papers based on already published work:
    • Systematization of Knowledge (SoK) papers that “evaluate, systematize, and contextualize existing knowledge”,
    • replication papers that replicate, question and clarify important work done by others,
    • extended abstracts of works previously published by the same authors in peer-reviewed journals or conference proceedings;
  • didactic papers related to practice (be it engineering, social, geopolitical or legal), including state of affairs reports, experience or experimentation reports, and detailed problem descriptions.

Papers of 10 to 16 pages describing original and innovative work, as well as SoK papers, have the greatest chance of being proposed for inclusion in the official proceedings (authors can decide to opt out). The others will be proposed for inclusion in the off proceedings.
