Call for papers

6th ACNS Workshop on Secure Cryptographic Implementation (SCI)每年与ACNS同期举办，第6届在德国慕尼黑，2025年6月会议。

2025年3月截稿、4月通知，详见https://acns-sci.github.io

关注密码工程的全方位问题：

JoCE/CHES ≈ Side Channel + High Performance
侧信道攻防、高性能实现；密码方案的现网部署和测量
证书服务和密钥管理；随机数发生器；密钥安全
密码误用；协议实现验证；密码软硬件

topics

We try to promote secure cryptographic solutions in the Internet, by exploring and discussing the (in)security issues. We solicit submissions of original research papers on a wide range of topics, including but not limited to:

Secure implementations of crypto algorithms & protocols
Measurement of cryptographic solutions in the wild, defective or updated
Designs of random bit generators
Weak cryptographic keys and defective random bit generators
Side channel attacks and defenses
Cryptographic key protections and memory attacks
PKI certificate services and key management
HTTPS/TLS vulnerabilities and attacks
Measurement and bugs of certificate-based solutions
Audit and monitoring of cryptographic services
Physical attacks and defenses of cryptographic implementation
Verification and evaluation of cryptographic implementation
High-performance cryptographic engines
Cryptographic hardware
Cryptography for Blockchain
Cryptography for IoT/CPS
Cryptography for the Cloud
Cryptography for Mobile systems
Cryptography for VANET

We are especially interested in papers with novel ideas, position papers, pilot studies, and initial findings. ACNS will also award a best papers from the 2025 ACNS workshops (ADSC, AIBlock, AIHWS, AIoTS, CIMSS, Cloud S&P, SCI, SecMT, SiMLA and S&P-FL), with 500 EUR prize sponsored by Springer. Meanwhile, the workshop will include an interesting keynote talk, which will be announced on the workshop web site as arrangements are finalized.
