Present CFP : 2025

The 23rd International Conference on Applied Cryptography and Network Security (ACNS 2025) will be held in Munich, Germany, on 23–26 June 2025. ACNS is an annual conference focusing on current developments that advance the areas of applied cryptography, cyber security (including network and computer security) and privacy. The goal is to present both academic research works and advances on industrial and technical frontiers.

Submissions may focus on the modeling, design, analysis, development, deployment, integration, maintenance performance, and usability of algorithms, protocols, standards, implementations, devices, as well as systems, standing in relation with applied cryptography, cyber security and privacy and advancing or bringing new insights to the state of the art.

Areas of interest for ACNS 2025 (in alphabetical order) include but are not limited to:

Applied cryptography
Artificial intelligence for security
Automated security analysis
Authentication and biometric security and privacy
Blockchain security and privacy
Cloud security and privacy
Critical infrastructure security and privacy
Cryptanalysis
Cryptographic primitives and protocols
Data protection
Distributed security and consensus protocols
Email, app and web security and privacy
Future Internet security and privacy
Lightweight cryptography
Identity management
Internet fraud and cybercrime
Internet-of-Things security and privacy
Malicious code and unsolicited software
Mobile and wireless security
Network security protocols
Post-quantum cryptography
Privacy and anonymity, privacy-enhancing technologies
Secure electronic voting
Security and privacy metrics
Security and privacy of systems based on ML and AI
Side-channel analysis and physical attacks
Systems security and privacy
Trust management and trustworthy computing in networks or systems
Usable security and privacy

Besides the main conference, ACNS also seeks workshop proposals. Each satellite workshop will provide a forum to address a specific topic at the forefront of cybersecurity research. Papers accepted at the workshops will have post-proceedings published by Springer in the LNCS series as well.

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 venue. Any paper with a student as an author is eligible for this award. In addition, ACNS gives the best workshop paper award, with 500 EUR prize sponsored by Springer.
