Dear colleagues,

sorry if you receive multiple copies of this CfP.

The 20th International Conference on Applied Cryptography and Network 
Security (ACNS 2022) will be held in Rome, Italy, on 20-23 June 2022. 
ACNS is an annual conference focusing on current developments that 
advance the areas of applied cryptography, cyber security (including 
network and computer security) and privacy. The goal is to represent 
both academic research works as well as developments in industrial and 
technical frontiers.

Submissions may focus on the modelling, design, analysis (including 
security proofs and attacks), development (e.g. implementations), 
deployment (e.g. system integration), and maintenance (e.g. performance 
measurements, usability studies) of algorithms, protocols, standards, 
implementations, technologies devices, systems standing in relation with 
applied cryptography, cyber security and privacy, while advancing or 
bringing new insights to the state of the art.

Areas of interest for ACNS 2022 include but are not limited to:

  *

    Access control

  *

    Applied cryptography

  *

    Automated security analysis

  *

    Biometric security/privacy

  *

    Blockchain and cryptocurrencies

    Internet-of-Things (IoT) security

  *

    Intrusion detection

  *

    Key management

  *

    Malware

  *

    Mobile/wireless/5G security

  *

    Network security protocols

  *

    Privacy/anonymity, PETs

  *

    Security/privacy metrics

  *

    Side channel attacks (e.g., microarchitectural, physical-layer)

  *

    Trust management

  *

    Ubiquitous security/privacy

  *

    Usable security/privacy

ACNS To encourage promising students to publish their best results in 
ACNS, any paper co-authored by at least one full-time student who will 
present the paper at the conference is eligible for the best student 
paper award, with a cash reward of Euro 1000 sponsored by Springer.

Besides the main conference, ACNS also seeks workshop proposals. Each 
satellite workshop will provide a forum to address a specific topic at 
the forefront of cybersecurity research. Papers accepted at the 
workshops will have post-proceedings published by Springer in the LNCS 
series as well.
