SecureSysComm 2016 - 2nd Workshop on Security and Privacy in Systems and Communication Networks

Modern society witnesses a growing pervasiveness of sophisticated computer-based systems and increasingly performance communication networks, whose influence in daily life is huge. Complexity, heterogeneity, scale and interdependence shown by such systems are source of potential vulnerabilities and threats. The workshop seeks submissions from academia and industry presenting novel research on theoretical and practical aspects of data protection, privacy, security, and cryptography. Papers describing new methods or technologies, advanced prototypes, systems, tools and techniques and general survey papers indicating future directions are also encouraged.
