   - Computer-aided design (CAD) tools
   - Emerging and nanoscale devices
   - Trojans and backdoors
   - Side-channel attacks and mitigation
   - Fault injection and mitigation
   - (Anti-)Reverse engineering and physical attacks
   - Anti-tamper
   - Anti-counterfeit
   - Hardware Obfuscation


*ARCHITECTURE*

   - Trusted execution environments
   - Cache-side channel attacks and mitigation
   - Privacy-preserving computation
   - System-on-chip (SoC)/platform security
   - FPGA and reconfigurable fabric security
   - Cloud computing
   - Smart phones and smart devices


*SYSTEM*

   - Internet-of-things (IoT) security
   - Sensors and sensor network security
   - Smart grid security
   - Automotive/autonomous vehicle security
   - Cyber-physical system security
   - (Adversarial) Machine learning and cyber deception
   - Security and trust for future pandemics
   - Blockchain and cryptocurrencies

*Paper Submission*

   - The page limit is 10 pages (excluding the references), double
   column, IEEE format
   https://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html
   with a minimum font size of 11 pt. The submission page will be provided
   soon. Authors are expected to submit articles that are original and have
   not been submitted to any other conference or Journal. Multiple submissions
   will be disqualified


   - Only work that has not been previously published at the time of the
   conference will be considered. Duplicate submissions to concurrent
   conferences/journals are not permissible, and if encountered will be
   rejected and reported to IEEE.


   - The paper selection will involve a double blind review and rebuttal process
   the identity of authors must not be revealed, directly or indirectly,
   over the course of the entire process.

   - Additional guidance for HOST reviewers on preprint, double-blind,
   multiple-submissions and related IEEE policy can be found on the HOST
   Publication Policies
