We are inviting papers for the 21st International Conference on Cyber Warfare and Security (ICCWS 2026) which will be held at University of North Carolina Wilmington (UNCW), USA on the 5th - 6th March 2026.
This call will close on 13th August 2025.
ICCWS 2026 is an opportunity for academics, military personnel, practitioners and consultants from around the world who are involved in the study, management, development and implementation of systems and concepts to combat information warfare or to improve information systems security to come together and exchange ideas. There are several strong strands of research developing in the cyber warfare and cyber security area including the understanding of threats and risks to information systems, the development of a strong security culture, as well as incident detection and post incident investigation. New threats brought about by social networking and cloud computing are gaining interest from the research community and the conference is tackling these issues.
Please consider submitting to this conference. We are interested in the entire range of concepts from theory to practice, including case studies, works-in-progress, and conceptual explorations as well as both PhD and masters research.
As well as the main call for papers we are pleased to announce the following specialist Min Tracks at the Conference:
