Aim and Scope
Supply Chain is a global network that delivers raw materials, products, and services to end customers through an engineered flow of information, physical distribution, and money.
The rapid growth of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) has impacted many fields. In this context, the supply chain has also quickly evolved towards the Digital Supply Chain (DSC) where digital and electronic technologies have been integrated into every aspect of its end-to-end process. This evolution provides numerous benefits such as profit maximization, loss reduction, and optimization of supply chain lead times. However, the use of such technologies has also considerably opened up various security threats and risks that have widened the attack surface on the entire end-to-end supply chain.
Indeed, DSC is vulnerable to a large set of cyberattacks, ranging from simple information theft to the complete stoppage of a factory’s activities. More precisely, DSC is not a technology, but a collaboration of different technologies and techniques such as the Internet of Things (IoT), cloud computing, networks and telecommunications, and many others. Thus, DSC is vulnerable to the different cyber risks of the underlying technologies.
In the same context, a software supply chain (SSC) is the sequence of events required to analyze, design, and deliver a software service or product. Unfortunately, like physical counterparts, security issues are very common in the software supply chain. Malicious actors are also finding ways to compromise the tools and open source packages used by software developers. Part of the SSC process is making sure the code being developed satisfies the critical requirements of the software.
This call for chapters aims to improve the state of the art and bring together the latest advances, experiences, findings, and developments related to the security of the digital supply chain and software supply chain.
Topics of interest for this call for chapters include (but are not limited to):
- Cybersecurity of the digital supply chain and the software supply chain.
- Cyber resilience of the digital supply chain and the software supply chain.
- Security issues of the digital supply chain and the software supply chain.
- Security of the underlying technologies of the digital supply chain.
- Countermeasures to enhance the security of the digital supply chain.
- Cybersecurity and cyber resilience of industrial systems.
- Threat intelligence in digital and software supply chains.
- Artificial intelligence and machine learning for supply chain security.
- Supply chain risk management strategies.
- Digital twins in supply chain security.
- Zero-Trust architecture for supply chain security.
- Supply chain security in the context of 5G networks.
- Data privacy and compliance in supply chain management.
- Incident response and recovery in supply chains.
Submission Guidelines
Authors are required to first submit an abstract of their proposed chapter. This abstract will undergo a brief review by the editors to ensure it aligns with the publication’s scope and standards. If the abstract is approved, the authors will receive a notification of acceptance, after which they can proceed with the full chapter submission.
Please submit both abstracts and full chapters through EasyChair using the following https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=book-sdsc2024. There are no fees associated with the submission, review, or publication process.
