About Cyber Science 2027
Cyber Science 2027 will be a hybrid event, however, we encourage participant to endeaviour to attend in-person.
The International Conference on Cybersecurity, Situational Awareness and Social Media (Cyber Science 2027) is a multidisciplinary forum that brings together academics, researchers, industry practitioners, policymakers and other stakeholders to exchange knowledge, present original research and explore emerging developments across the cyber landscape.
The conference advances the principles, methods and practical applications of cybersecurity, situational awareness and social media. It provides an international platform for interdisciplinary collaboration, informed debate and the development of innovative responses to complex digital challenges.
Cyber Science 2027 welcomes submissions of original, high-quality research addressing the principles, concepts, analysis, design, methods and applications of cybersecurity, situational awareness and social media. All submissions will undergo an independent peer-review process. To be included in the conference proceedings, accepted papers must be registered and presented at the conference.
