The 19th edition of the Computer Security track at
the 35th ACM Symposium on Applied Computing
30th March - 3rd April 2020, Brno, Czech Republic

The Security Track reaches its 19th edition this year, thus appearing
among the most established tracks in the Symposium. Its acceptance rate
has become more and more selective. The list of issues remains vast,
ranging from protocols to work-flows. Topics of interest include but are
not limited to:

* software security (protocols, operating systems, etc.)
* hardware security (smartcards, biometric technologies, etc.)
* mobile security (properties for/from mobile agents, etc.)
* network security (anti-DoS tools, firewalls, real-time monitoring,
mobile networks, sensor networks, etc.)
* alternatives to cryptography (steganography, etc.)
* security-specific software development practices (vulnerability
testing, fault-injection resilience, etc.)
* privacy and anonymity (trust management, pseudonymity, identity
management, electronic voting, etc.)
* safety and dependability issues (reliability, survivability, etc.)
* cyberlaw and cybercrime (copyrights, trademarks, defamation,
intellectual property, etc.)
* security management and usability issues (security configuration,
policy management, usability trials etc.)
* workflow and service security (business processes, web services, etc.)
