IOSCOn

IOSCOn is an annual international conference focused on the Internet of Secure Things (IoST), an emerging field that integrates security principles into the design, deployment, and management of Internet of Things (IoT) systems. The event brings together researchers, industry professionals, policymakers, and academics to discuss advancements, challenges, and best practices in securing IoT ecosystems. Organized by the Internet of Secure Things Consortium (IoSTC), IOSCOn serves as a platform for fostering collaboration and innovation in the intersection of IoT and cybersecurity.

The conference typically covers a wide range of topics, including but not limited to, secure communication protocols, edge computing security, blockchain applications in IoT, privacy-preserving technologies, and regulatory frameworks for IoT security. Workshops, panel discussions, and technical sessions are often included to provide in-depth exploration of specific themes. Additionally, IOSCOn features keynote speeches from leading experts in the field, offering insights into emerging trends and future directions for IoT security.

IOSCOn first took place in [year of first conference], and since then, it has grown in scale and influence, attracting participants from diverse backgrounds. The conference is known for its inclusive approach, encouraging both established professionals and newcomers to contribute to the discourse. Attendees often leave with actionable knowledge, networking opportunities, and a deeper understanding of the evolving landscape of IoT security.

Beyond the main conference, IOSCOn may include satellite events such as hackathons, where participants collaborate on solving real-world IoT security challenges. These events further emphasize the conference’s commitment to practical, hands-on learning and community engagement. The event’s location rotates annually, allowing attendees to experience different regions and cultural perspectives on IoT security.

IOSCOn is published proceedings, which are often indexed in academic databases, ensuring that research presented at the conference gains visibility within the broader research community. The conference’s emphasis on both theoretical and applied research makes it a valuable resource for those working to advance the secure deployment of IoT technologies globally.
