17th International Conference on Applied Cryptography and Network Security (ACNS) 2019

ACNS is an annual conference on cryptography and network security. It has been held in 16 previous years in countries such as Belgium, Canada, USA, China, France, Japan, Singapore, Spain, Switzerland and United Kingdom. It has been co-organized by leading researchers in this field from institutions such as Columbia University, Ecole Normale Superieure, EPFL, Google, Microsoft among others. On average, 100 international researchers participate in this conference, where approximately 30 papers are presented. These papers are rigorously selected by a committee of more than 20 researchers from nearly 200 papers that are submitted to the conference.
