CALL FOR PAPERS Springer Journal of Hardware and Systems Security Special Issue on Security and Privacy in Automotive and Aerospace Cyber-Physical Systems

GUEST EDITORS: Kemal Akkaya, kakkaya@fiu.edu, Florida International University Ed Colbert, edward.j.colbert2.civ@mail.mil, U.S. Army Research Lab (ARL) Dilip Krishnaswamy, dilip@ieee.org, IBM Research Labs Selcuk Uluagac, suluagac@fiu.edu, Florida International University

AIMS and SCOPE: Modern cars and aeronautical systems are no longer traditional stand-alone mechanical engineering masterpieces. They are now characterized by numerous smart technologies that include sensors, wireless standards, and data analytics. Referred to as Automotive and Aerospace Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), these CPSes are going through massive transformation for increasing the safety, efficiency, and reliability of their operations. These CPSes consist of interconnected systems of heterogeneous components, which are always on, can operate autonomously and interact with the physical world seamlessly through their sensors. For instance, a commercial aircraft or a driverless car includes thousands of interior and exterior sensors and actuators on board to provide more efficient and reliable services. Similarly, many new communication standards have emerged within the last few years to provide communication among these sensors and actuators for various application scenarios. Manufacturers can now collect huge amounts of data through these sensors to apply real-time operations and accurately determine any hardware/software/communication failures.

Nonetheless, the cyberspace of these automotive and aerospace CPSes provides numerous opportunities for malicious actors threatening the security and privacy of the vehicles/airplanes and their applications. Unprotected or improperly protected systems can be easily exploited for malicious use. Indeed, the automotive and aerospace CPSes are under the constant threat of an increasing number of cyber attacks through the sensory or wireless channels, hardware, software, or actuators. Given the growing number of security and privacy threats to the automotive and aerospace CPS, securing them against malicious activities is of utmost importance. Otherwise, malfunctioning and insecure CPS devices and applications in automotive and aerospace fields can cause enormous damage to individuals and businesses. Therefore, this special issue of Journal of Hardware and Systems Security (HaSS) focuses on state-of- the-art research in the security and privacy of automotive and aerospace CPS. It seeks novel submissions describing practical and theoretical solutions, and approaches to the cyber security challenges faced by the automotive and aerospace CPSes. Submissions may represent any security and privacy related topic for the automotive and aerospace CPS. Example topics of interest are listed below.

TOPICS OF INTEREST: The topics of interest for this special issue include, but are not limited to, the following: • Hardware level security for automotive or aerospace CPS • Secure hardware extensions for automotive or aerospace CPS • Trusted computing modules/platforms for aerospace and automotive CPS • Secure automotive or aerospace CPS architectures • Authentication mechanisms for automotive or aerospace CPS • Access control for automotive or aerospace CPS • Key management in automotive or aerospace CPS • Data security and privacy for automotive or aerospace CPS • Forensics for automotive or aerospace CPS • Intrusion detection for automotive or aerospace CPS • Trusted-computing in automotive or aerospace CPS • Energy-efficient and secure automotive or aerospace CPS • Availability, recovery and auditing for automotive or aerospace CPS • Distributed secure solutions for automotive or aerospace CPS • Block-chain based applications for automotive or aerospace CPS • Threat models for automotive or aerospace CPS • Physical layer security for automotive or aerospace CPS • Security on heterogeneous automotive or aerospace CPS • Secure protocol design in automotive or aerospace CPS • Vulnerability analysis of automotive or aerospace CPS • Anonymization in automotive or aerospace CPS • Security of automotive or aerospace embedded systems • Security of Internet-of-Things in automotive or aerospace CPS • Hardware-supported solutions for computing system protection • SoC design for highly-secure automotive or aerospace CPS • SoC security validation for automotive or aerospace CPS protection • Cross-layer hardware/software attacks and protections on automotive or aerospace CPS • Hardware-supported trustworthy automotive or aerospace CPS design • Hardware security primitives including PUFs and Public PUFs for automotive or aerospace CPS • Software level attacks on automotive or aerospace CPS leveraging hardware vulnerabilities • Trusted computing platforms for smart devices in automotive or aerospace CPS • Datacenter security challenges for automotive or aerospace CPS infrastructure • Formal verification for trusted hardware platform for automotive or aerospace CPS • Trade-offs in automotive or aerospace CPS between security, privacy, performance, and energy constraints
