March 8-9, 2023 Secure and Trustworthy Cyberspace
Vision 2.0 Workshop

Secure & Trustworthy Cyberspace Vision 2.0 Workshop

The Secure and Trustworthy Cyberspace (SaTC) Program of the National Science Foundation is developing a new vision document that will be used to craft future calls for proposals and shape the next decade of cybersecurity research among the NSF community. This effort is co-chaired by Patrick McDaniel of University of Wisconsin–Madison and Farinaz Koushanfar of University of California San Diego

The first step in this process is a two-day workshop to assess the key research challenges and opportunities of the cybersecurity and privacy community for the next decade. We encourage experts in industry, academia and government to participate by submitting topics and volunteering to participate in the workshop on March 8-9, 2023 in Richardson, Texas.

People are encouraged to submit topics for the workshop as well as nominations to participate. The deadline is February 10, 2023.

Ways to Participate

Volunteer for the March 2023 Workshop

Although we have invited many of our colleagues in academia, government and industry, we know there are still many more people who would provide invaluable insight by attending the workshop. Please nominate members of the community or yourself for participation.  Those attending the workshop will receive an invite from the organizers.  Nominations do not guarantee an invite.

All attendees are required to be present for the entire two-day event and will be expected to actively participate in writing and discussion groups. Please note that space is limited and not all nominees can be invited. The planning committee will select from nominees based on criteria such as area, diversity, seniority to ensure a representative body.

Please submit nominations by February 10, 2023 for consideration.

Submit Nomination

Submit Topics for Discussion at the Workshop

We are gathering ideas and subjects from the community on what is most relevant for the workshop.

Suggestions should include important current and future topics in cybersecurity research, problems to consider, trends, opportunities, or other topics that interface with the community. We strongly encourage focusing on current problems, but also envision new areas and opportunities previously unexplored.

Please submit ideas by February 10, 2023 for consideration.
