The International Data Corporation (IDC) envisions that 41 billion Internet-of-Things (IoT) endpoints will be in use by 2025. It is expected that IoT Systems will foster innovations in many application domains such as Intelligent transportation, energy, eHealth, industry 4.0 and technology. These often include critical infrastructures, which are of paramount importance to the security, economy, and the well-being of nations and their citizens. As a result, these IoT systems need to be carefully designed, verified, validated and maintained with security as a firstclass citizen before and during operation.

The GRAAL4IoT international workshop is one of the most accurate venues to discuss and advances all topics related the design, verification and validation of IoT systems with a specific focus on security. The key goals of the workshop are:

1. Foster work on novel topics covering fundamental as well as applied research on the design, verification, and validation of IoT systems,
2. Bring together researchers from the software development and IoT communities, as well as to promote discussions between theoreticians and practitioners.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

• Modelling and design of IoT systems
• Testing and monitoring of IoT systems
• Risk Assessment of IoT systems
• Cybersecurity and resilience of IoT system and Critical Infrastructures
• DevOps for IoT systems
• Digital Twin, Simulation and Co-simulation of IoT systems
