IWSSS 2025, the 13th edition of the International Workshop on Systems Safety & Security, is
dedicated to one of the most pressing issues in our global political, military, and economic
context: the security and safety of critical infrastructures. These infrastructures, including
energy production and distribution, water and wastewater management, defense, healthcare providers,
transportation systems, and communications, are the backbone of our society. The presented papers
delve into advanced topics, from formal methods for security to applied artificial intelligence
techniques for increasing cyber resilience, with a special focus on systems safety.
The previous editions of our workshop brought together renowned professors and researchers,
practitioners and implementers from industry, young scientists, and specialists from all over the
world. IWSSS is a natural bridge between academia and industry.
The quality and international visibility of the workshop are certified by the fact that the papers
presented in the previous editions were published in IEEE Xplore and have an excellent citation
count.
