The CPS concept is currently used by many application domains like Industry 4.0, eHealth, smart homes and cities, transportation systems and critical infrastructures, robotics and drones, and autonomous driving. On one hand, CPSs have brought new capabilities that are used to improve the quality of life, increase the efficiency of the provided services, and enhance the manufacturing process. On the other hand, these systems enable opening and connectivity to the Internet, which generates new physical and cybersecurity vulnerabilities concerning devices, data, and networks. Unaddressed security challenges may lead to severe consequences and even cause life-threatening situations.</span><br style="color: rgb(221, 218, 214); font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; --darkreader-inline-color:#d0ccc6;" data-darkreader-inline-color=""><br style="color: rgb(221, 218, 214); font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; --darkreader-inline-color:#d0ccc6;" data-darkreader-inline-color=""><span style="color: rgb(221, 218, 214); font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(29, 32, 33); --darkreader-inline-color:#d0ccc6; --darkreader-inline-bgcolor:#17191a;" data-darkreader-inline-color="" data-darkreader-inline-bgcolor="">The Cyber-Physical Systems Strategic and Technical Security (CPS-STS) Workshop aims to span both strategic and technical security perspectives and cover current security challenges in the CPSs and the cutting-edge security perimeters. The workshop earns its unique identity from assembling both technical and tactical (strategic) security aspects in a single place. The workshop will bring together researchers from academia, industry, security practitioners, and individuals who are working on relevant research areas to share their latest challenges, accomplishments, future vision, and research findings with cybersecurity and CPSs research communities.</span><br style="color: rgb(221, 218, 214);
