Robots and Security (ROBOSEC) Symposium will be held in Canterbury, UK, in conjunction with the Int. Conf. on Emerging Security Technologies (EST-2010) and the Int Symp on Learning and Adaptive Behavior in Robotic Systems (LAB-RS 2010).

The focus of this symposium is the intersection between robotics and security. It includes both topics related to future roles of robots for security as well  as the topics related to security and trustworthiness of robotic platforms, which have to defend themselves against interception of their transmitted intelligence or hostile take-over of their controls. The symposium aims to foster discussions between specialists in robotics and specialists in security, and share experiences from the community that has already been working at the frontier of the two domains.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Trust in Robots and Unmanned Platforms
- Cyber-physical systems security
- Robotic Immune Systems
- Robot protection and countermeasures against intercepts and attacks
- Self-test and self-repair
- Transformers
- Miniature robots for surveillance applications
- UAVs and Electronic Warfare
- UAVs for surveillance and border security
- Robots in Underground Operations
- Security of Underwater Platforms
- Robotic Search and Rescue
- Security of Robot-facilitated ad-hoc networks
