================================== SCN 2010 Seventh Conference on Security and Cryptography for Networks September 13-15, 2010, Amalfi, Italy http://scn.dia.unisa.it/ ================================== Scope Security and privacy are increasing concerns in computer networks such as the Internet. The availability of fast, reliable, and cheap electronic communication offers the opportunity to perform electronically and in a distributed way a wide range of transactions of a most diverse nature. The Seventh Conference on Security and Cryptography for Networks (SCN 2010) aims at bringing together researchers in the field of cryptography and security in communication networks to foster cooperation and exchange of ideas. Original papers on all technical aspects of cryptography and security are solicited for submission to SCN 2010. Topics of interest are (but not limited to): Anonymity Implementations Authentication Symmetric-Key Cryptography Complexity-based Cryptography Privacy Cryptanalysis Cryptographic Protocols Digital Signatures Public-Key Cryptography Hash Functions Survey and State of the Art Identification Formal Methods in Security Information-Theoretic Security Submissions Authors are invited to submit electronically (PDF format) a non- anonymous extended abstract. The submission should begin with a title, followed by the names, affiliations and contact information of all authors, and a short abstract. The length of the submission should be at most 12 pages excluding the title page, bibliography and appendices. It should use at least 11- point fonts and have reasonable sized margins. The extended abstract should clearly indicate the results achieved, their significance, and their relation to other work in the area. Referees are not required to read appendices; the paper should be intelligible without them. Submissions must not substantially duplicate work that was published elsewhere, or work that any of the authors has submitted in parallel to any other conference or workshop that has proceedings. Program committee members are restricted to one submission each. The web-based submission form will be available soon (check the webpage). In case electronic submission is not possible, authors should contact the organization at scn@dia.unisa.it. Proceedings Proceedings are expected to be published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series. Dates and Deadlines Submission: April 7, 2010 Notification to authors: May 28, 2010 Camera-Ready Version: June 18, 2010 Conference: September 13-15, 2010 Presentation Authors of accepted papers must guarantee that their paper will be presented at the conference.
