SAFEGUARDING TRANSPORTATION CYBERSECURITY IN THE DIGITAL AGE
CyberCare Symposium 2024
On behalf of the University Transportation Center, we are pleased to announce that
the 2024 Symposium on CyberCare will be held from October 17th (Thursday) to October
19th (Saturday), 2024, at the Student Center South, University of Houston, TX. The
theme of the symposium is “Safeguarding Transportation Cybersecurity in the Digital
Age.” The main objective of the symposium is to provide a forum for professionals
to discuss and address the pressing needs of cybersecurity, connected and automated
vehicles (CAV), AI applications, Intelligent Transportation Systems, safety in transportation
systems, resilient and robust transportation, next-gen transportation cybersecurity,
and how digital and AI technologies are revolutionizing transportation. The symposium
will also serve as a collaborative space to develop strategies for protecting data
integrity, ensuring the robustness of AI systems in unpredictable conditions, and
fostering sustainable innovation within the digital transportation framework.
