The program committee solicits previously unpublished papers offering novel research contributions in any aspect of security in computing and communications. Papers without a clear application to security, however, will be considered out of scope and may be rejected without full review. Simultaneous submission of the same paper to another venue with proceedings or a journal is not allowed and will be grounds for automatic rejection.
