Due to the safety concerns and travel restrictions caused by COVID-19, EAI SecureComm 2020 will take place online in a live stream.

Non-authors and Co-Authors of already registered papers can register for access to the live stream completely free of charge.

Scope

SecureComm is celebrating its 16th year as one of the highest-quality conferences for research in secure communications and networking. This year’s conference seeks high-quality research contributions in the form of well-developed papers. Topics of interest encompass research advances in ALL areas of secure communications and networking.
Topics in other areas (e.g., formal methods, database security, secure software, theoretical cryptography) will be considered only if a clear connection to private or secure communication/networking is demonstrated.
The submissions have to comply with the Springer format.
