ACNS
 
International Conference on
Applied Cryptography and Network Security
                                 

ACNS is
an annual conference
focusing on current developments that advance the areas of applied cryptography, cybersecurity (including network & computer security) and privacy. The goal is to represent both academic research works as well as developments in industrial and technical frontiers. ACNS receives strong support in the communities of cryptography and security, which is reflected from its organizers, program committee, and very competitive paper acceptance rate. ACNS also organizes satellite workshops. Each workshop provides a forum to address a specific topic at the forefront of cybersecurity research. ACNS gives the best student paper award (with 1500 EUR prize sponsored by Springer), to encourage promising students to publish their best results at this promising conference. ACNS also gives the best workshop paper award (with 500 EUR prize sponsored by Springer), to be selected from all the satellite workshops, and the best poster award to be voted by all the participants.
