- security and privacy in cloud scenarios
- security and privacy in complex systems
- security and privacy in location services
- security and privacy for mobile code
- security and privacy in pervasive/ubiquitous computing
- security and privacy policies
- security and privacy in social networks
- security and privacy in web services

PAPER SUBMISSIONS
--------------------------
Submitted papers must not substantially overlap papers that have been
published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a
conference with proceedings. The proceedings will be published by
Springer in the the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series.

All submissions should follow the LNCS template
(http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-793341-0)
from the time they are submitted. Submitted papers should be
at most 16 pages (using 10-point font), excluding the bibliography and
well-marked appendices, and at most 20 pages total. Committee members
are not required to read the appendices, so the paper should be
intelligible without them. All submissions must be written in English.

Purely theoretical papers, e.g. in cryptography, must be explicit about
the relevance of the theory to the security of IT systems.

Submissions are to be made to the submission web site at
http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=esorics2015.
Only pdf files will be accepted. Submissions not meeting these guidelines
risk rejection without consideration of their merits.
Papers must be received by the deadline of April 13, 2015 [extended].
Authors of accepted papers must guarantee that their papers will be
presented at the conference.
Submissions should not be anonymized.
