Call for Papers - IEEE International Conference on Intelligence and Security Informatics (ISI 2025)

The 2025 IEEE International Conference on Intelligence and Security Informatics (ISI 2025) will be held from July 12-13, 2025, in Hong Kong, China.

Intelligence and security informatics (ISI) is an interdisciplinary field involving academic researchers and industry professionals focused on physical and cyber security missions. The conference aims to advance our understanding of the interrelationships between technology, humans, organizations, and security.

ISI 2025 invites academic researchers, IT, security, and analytics professionals, as well as industry consultants and practitioners, to submit papers and workshop proposals. Research relevant to artificial intelligence security, LLM security, and human behavior in security contexts is strongly encouraged.
