SCOPE

The IEEE International Workshop on Security in Computers, Networking and
Communications (SCNC) is an international forum for researchers, developers,
and practitioners to demonstrate new ideas, techniques, and tools on secure
and usable computer and communications systems and user privacy, new threats
to confidentiality, integrity, and usability of computer and communications
systems and user privacy, for users to exchange their experience in new
tools and techniques that lead to improvement of security, integrity, and
usability of computer and communication systems. The workshop welcomes
academia, government, industry, and contributing individuals to submit
unpublished papers in theoretical and practical aspects of computer and
communications security.
