Electronic surveillance and cyberattacks are used in occupied conflict regions by aggressors to monitor, cut off communications, intimidate, disrupt, or target [3]. Cyberatttacks are also levied across borders against countries, their populations, and institutions [4], as well as against the United Nations [5] and international, non-governmental organizations (NGOs) providing humanitarian aid [6,7,8,9]. And, attackers are known to take advantage of individuals in vulnerable situations following major natural disasters, such as hurricanes, floods, and wildfires [10].\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nThis Special Issue of <\/span>IEEE Security & Privacy<\/span><\/i> on \u201cCybersecurity and Privacy in Global Conflict and Disaster Regions\u201d solicits articles on topics related to the aforementioned situations, including threats, mitigations, policies, and future directions.<\/span><\/p>\nTo better convey scope, a few examples of articles published in other venues that demonstrate desired scope of this Special Issue include (but are not limited to):<\/span><\/p>\n\n- Jessica McClearn and Rikke Bjerg Jensen, and Reem Talhouk.

Submitted articles should focus on facts and emphasize <\/span>technical or scientific aspects<\/b> (including human factors) of cybersecurity and privacy, or threats to cybersecurity and privacy,\u00a0 in global conflict and disaster regions.\u00a0 We encourage a broad and unbiased exploration and discussion of various threats, mitigations, and situations.<\/span><\/p>\nPieces focusing on important topics such as social media, mis\/disinformation and generative AI are only in scope insofar as those pieces tie strongly to cybersecurity and privacy.<\/span><\/p>\nNot in scope<\/b> for this issue include articles that are <\/span>opinion<\/b> pieces or <\/span>political<\/b> in nature.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nWhen in doubt about scope, prospective authors should please recall traditional themes of cybersecurity and privacy conferences and journal venues.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\nSubmission Guidelines<\/h3>\n
