https://securecomm.eai-conferences.org/2022/call-for-papers/ ===========================================================
Scope
SecureComm is a conference in EAI core conference portfolio focusing on cybersecurity. The aim of SecureComm is to bring together researchers and practitioners in academic, industry, and government in security, networking, communication and other related communities to explore important research directions in the field. The 18th SecureComm conference seeks submissions of high-quality research contributions. Topics of interest encompass ALL areas of secure communications and networking. Topics in less related areas will be considered if a clear connection to secure communication and networking is demonstrated. Topics addressing interdisciplinary challenges in different application domains are welcome.
EAI SecureComm 2022 will be held as an on-site conference and if needed, Accepted Authors who are unable to attend the event in person will be given an option to present remotely.
---------------------------------------------------------
Topics
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following:
Security and privacy in computer networks (e.g., wired, wireless, mobile, hybrid, sensor, vehicular, satellite, 5G, 6G, ad hoc, peer-to-peer, and software-defined networks)
Security and privacy in systems with a strong secure communication and networking element (e.g., security in cloud, IoT, cyber-physical systems, edge and fog computing, and teleconferencing)
Physical layer security (e.g., jamming, GPS spoofing)
Web and mobile security and privacy
Security protocols at all network layers and for different applications (e.g., for secure routing, naming/addressing, network management, remote authentication and attestation)
Network attacks (e.g., DDoS, MitM, malware, botnets, side-channel attacks, phishing/pharming, cybersquatting) and defenses (e.g., network intrusion detection and prevention, firewalls, packet filters, moving target defence)
Network, internet and cloud forensics
Cybercrime investigation and attribution
Cyber threat intelligence and cyber incident responses
Anonymous and privacy-aware communications (e.g., Tor, darknet)
Internet censorship and circumvention
Secure communication and networking applications (e.g., industry 4.0, energy, transportation, smart cities)
Quantum key distribution and other quantum-based secure communications Visualization of secure communications and networking
Privacy-preserving computing in secure communication and networking (e.g., privacy-preserving machine learning)
Distributed ledger technologies (e.g., blockchain and cryptocurrencies) Resilience of computer networks and critical infrastructures
Defending false information online (e.g., mis-, dis- and mal-information) Socio-technical aspects of secure communications and networking (e.g., usability, human behaviours, legal issues, cybercrime, economics)
Security and privacy of contact tracing and other COVID-19 related digital interventions with a core element on telecommunications or networking
---------------------------------------------------------

Paper submission
Papers should be submitted through EAI 'Confy+' system, and have to comply with the Springer format (see Author's kit section).
All conference papers undergo a thorough peer review process prior to the final decision and publication. This process is facilitated by experts in the Technical Program Committee during a dedicated conference period. Standard peer review is enhanced by EAI Community Review which allows EAI members to bid to review specific papers. All review assignments are ultimately decided by the responsible Technical Program Committee Members while the Technical Program Committee Chair is responsible for the final acceptance selection.

*EAI SecureComm 2022: CALL FOR WORKSHOP PROPOSALS*
The 18th EAI International Conference on Security and Privacy in Communication Networks
https://securecomm.eai-conferences.org/2022/call-workshop-proposals/ ===========================================================
The Conference Organizing Committee invites submissions from individuals or groups to organise Workshops at the SecureComm 2022.
Proposals are solicited for one-day or half-day workshops to be held as part of the SecureComm 2022 conference (October 17-19, 2022). Workshops bridging security and communications, or presenting new perspectives in security areas are particularly welcome. A full list of current topics of interest can be found in the SecureComm Call For Papers (https://securecomm.eai-conferences.org/2022/call-for-papers/).
SecureComm workshops provide a platform for presenting novel ideas in a less formal environment than the main conference itself. The submission format of each workshop will be determined by the workshop organizers.
Accepted workshop papers will be published in the SecureComm workshop proceedings by Springer, together with the main SecureComm proceedings. Thus, the timeline to print proceedings are planned according to the SecureComm proceedings schedule.
---------------------------------------------------------
Deadline for Workshop Proposals
Proposals Due: May 15, 2022
Notification of Workshop Proposal Acceptance: May 30, 2022

* Organizers: Give short descriptions of each of the organizers?background and interests related to security and privacy in communication networks and the specific workshop topic.
---------------------------------------------------------
Workshop selection
We aim to select a diverse set of workshops and avoid having multiple workshops on overlapping themes. Organizers of the selected workshops will be asked to produce a Call for Papers to describe the workshop to potential participants and solicit submissions. In order to promote vivid discussions with more participants to the workshops, EAI will provide Workshop Organizers with one free registration to the Workshop for each 10 papers submitted to their workshop.
The criteria for assessment will include:
- Relevance to conference vision/topics and attendees
- Potential to bring in participants to the conference from different audiences - Overall quality of contribution
- Provides a hands-on, collaborative, and/or active learning environment for attendees
---------------------------------------------------------
Workshop publication
Accepted and presented papers will be published alongside the main conference proceedings as a sub-section/chapter. Paper formats should, therefore, correspond to the templates of the publisher of the main conference.
Workshop chairs are invited to engage with the journals and further publication opportunities.
---------------------------------------------------------
Proposal submission
Workshop proposals should be submitted in a maximum of 4 pages in PDF format, single-spaced.
Please email your workshop proposals to Workshop chairs: Dr. Lannan Lisa Luo and Dr. Fatih Turkmen.
