The “IEEE International Symposium on Communications and Network Security” was held in Taiwan for the first time, chaired by Professor Shi-Cho Cha, the Director of the Department of Information Management at Taiwan Tech and the Information Security Center. With strong support from Professor Wei-Chung Teng, the Director of the Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering and the Taiwan Academic Cybersecurity Center (TACC), they successfully obtained the right to host the conference from the conference committee, highlighting Taiwan's growing recognition in the international information security research field.

The conference addressed several pressing global information security issues, covering topics such as the security and privacy of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and large language models, as well as threat detection techniques in communications and networks. It also delved into personal data protection, privacy, and the security of IoT systems. The breadth and depth of the discussions reflected the diversity and challenges in the information security domain, particularly concerning effective protection measures in the context of the rapid development of machine learning and AI technologies, which have become the focus of global concern.

Experts and scholars were also invited to engage in in-depth discussions on the security and privacy of generative artificial intelligence.

Additionally, the symposium featured keynote speeches from four renowned IEEE fellows: Distinguished Professor Willy Susilo from the University of Wollongong in Australia, Chief Research Scientist Yoshihiro Ohba from Kioxia Corporation in Japan, Professor Wenjing Lou from the University of Virginia and ACM fellow, and Professor Jianying Zhou, Director of the iTrust Center at Singapore University of Technology and Design. They discussed topics including “Research trends and opportunities in Cloud Security”, “Development trends and Applications of Fully Homomorphic Encryption”, “Security and Privacy in Mobile Communications”, and “Cyber-Physical System (CPS) Security”, providing attendees with insights into the future development trends and research opportunities in the information security field.

Professor Shi-Cho Cha, the chairman of the conference, expressed gratitude for the support of the TACC program and related units, particularly thanking Professor Wei-Chung Teng, the Director of the Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering, and all those involved in the preparations. He noted that the event brought together top experts in information security from various countries to exchange and collaborate with Taiwanese researchers.

This international symposium not only demonstrated Taiwan's strengths in information security technology and research but also marked a commitment to pursuing excellence in the field, strengthening connections with the global research community.

Taiwan Tech will continue to promote more international academic exchange activities, aiming to connect domestic resources from industry, government, and academia to foster the development of information security technologies, contribute to national security and industrial innovation, and position Taiwan as a global center in information security research.

This conference was held in Taiwan for the first time, bringing together 104 experts and scholars in the field of information security from around the world, including the United States, Germany, Singapore, the United Kingdom, and Sweden other countries around the world to participate in the event.
