The second iteration of this Symposium seeks to allow practitioners and academics to present emerging cybersecurity Big Data research and challenges in domains including data analytics, machine learning, and visualization; as well as to present and discuss potential cybersecurity big data research topics and methodologies of interest to the cybersecurity community.

Analytics topics include, but are not limited to, methodologies, techniques, and impacts of real-time processing for incident detection and/or prevention, data review for incident and anomaly detection, post incident response analytics, and IT audit related analytics. Visualization will look at all aspects of research related to data visualization such as temporal, geographical, threat, actor, event based, and other data types. Automated machine covers all forms that leverage or require big data for support, including defensive measures and potential threat applications.


The Symposium is offered as a part of the HICSS 51th Conference.


​Papers will also be fast-tracked for the Security Informatics journal.
