Objective
The primary objective of the International Conference on Emerging Trends in Cybersecurity (ICETCS 2025) is to provide a global platform for researchers, academicians, industry professionals, and policymakers to converge, share insights, and collaboratively explore the latest advancements and emerging trends in the field of cybersecurity. This conference aims to facilitate discussions on cutting-edge research, innovative technologies, and practical solutions that address the evolving challenges posed by cyber threats in our interconnected world. By fostering interdisciplinary dialogue and knowledge exchange, the conference aims to contribute to the development of robust cybersecurity strategies, enhance collaboration between academia and industry, and ultimately strengthen collective resilience against cyber threats on a global scale. Please Note: All accepted papers will be published in Lecture Notes in Electrical Engineering which is the Scopus-indexed proceedings with Springer.
