1 Introduction

With the booming development of the digital economy and the deepening of digital transformation, the underlying driving paradigm of the traditional digital ecosystem is facing profound changes, and the transition from user-side add-on endogenous defense to manufacturing-side design security network resilience has become an international consensus and a new development trend.

To embrace the new era of global network resilience development, under the guidance of China Institute of Communications, Chinese Institute of Electronics, China Computer Federation, Chinese Association of Automation, and China Society of Automotive Engineers, Purple Mountain Laboratory and Songshan Laboratory, in collaboration with Southeast University, Fudan University, National Digital Switching System Engineering & Technological R&D Center, as well as renowned universities, research institutes, and enterprises in the fields of network security and digital manufacturing, schedule to hold the 4th Cyperspace Endogenous Safety and Security development conference and Academic Forum in late November 2024 in Nanjing.

Taking the opportunity of “Cyberspace Endogenous Security Theory and Standard System” being selected as one of the “Top 10 Scientific and Technological Progresses in the Field of Information and Communication in the Year 2023”, the conference hold the tenet of “meaningful speech and aca- demic controversy” and the mission of encouraging academic innovation among young and middle-aged scholars, committing to building a high-end academic exchange platform for discussing, exchanging, publicizing and displaying original theories and technical achievements in digital ecological security.
