There is a shift away from the traditional client-server model to systems based on the peer-to peer network, which allows users share resources effectively. Also, due to increase in number of Internet applications & users, the security issues and pivotal challenges include integrity verification, authentication, and access control etc., are also increasing. As a consequence, the subject of security protection in Network & Communication area has attracted intensive research activities in academia and industry. With the recent advances in Communication & network technology, the applications in commercial security scenario become increasing essential.
The purpose of this conference is to publish latest & high-quality research works on Computer Networks & Communications security for wired and wireless networks in theoretical and practical aspects. This conference aims to promote state-of-the-art research in the area of computer Networks security.
Authors are solicited to contribute to the conference by submitting articles that illustrate research results, projects, surveying works and industrial experiences that describe significant advances in the following areas, but are not limited to
| Access control, Anonymity, Audit and audit reduction & Authentication and authorization | Internet/Intranet Security |
