Detail IWCC 01/04
Societies are increasingly dependent on online services for business, government, communication, and biomedical applications, which has expanded the attack surface for cybercriminals and increased the socio-economic impact of insecure digital infrastructures. IWCC 2026 brings together research from academia and industry on cybercrime, digital forensics, disinformation, AI-enabled crime, cyberbiosecurity, and related investigative challenges. The workshop particularly welcomes both theoretical work and practical case reviews addressing prevention, mitigation, interdiction, evidence handling, regulation, and multidisciplinary responses to emerging threats.
