IEEE Conference on Communications and Network Security (CNS) is a premier forum for cyber security researchers, practitioners, policy makers, and users to exchange ideas, techniques and tools, raise awareness, and share experience related to all practical and theoretical aspects of communications and network security.
The conference seeks submissions from academia, government, and industry presenting novel research results in all practical and theoretical aspects of communications and network security.
Particular topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
Anonymity and privacy technologies
Attacks and defenses
Computer and network forensics
Cyber deterrence strategies
Game-theoretic security technologies
High-availability communication systems
Implementation and evaluation of networked security systems
Information-theoretic security
Intrusion detection, prevention, and response
Key management, public key infrastructures, certification, and revocation
Location privacy
Malware detection and mitigation
Novel authentication technologies
Physical-layer and cross-layer security technologies
Security and privacy for big data
Security and privacy for data and network outsourcing services
Security and privacy for mobile and wearable devices
