The objective of this mini-track is to increase the visibility of current research and emergent trends in Cyber-Assurance theory, application, embedded security and machine-learning for the Internet of Things (IoT), software-defined networks (SDN)/network function virtualization (NFV), Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) and Fog computing architectures based on theoretical aspects and studies of practical applications.Cyber-assurance is the justified confidence that networked systems are adequately secure to meet operational needs, even in the presence of attacks, failures, accidents and unexpected events.Cyber-assurance means that IoT systems, smart internet connected devices (ICD) and networks provide the opportunity of automatically securing themselves against cyber-attacks.The difference is that the concept of cyber-assurance must provide embedded, secure microchips/processors in ICD devices and virtual networks that can continue to operate correctly even when subjected to an attack.
