CALL FOR PAPERS

******************************************************************************
IEEE CNS 2014 — IEEE Conference on Communications and Network Security
San Francisco, USA -- October 29-31, 2014
http://ieee-cns.org
******************************************************************************

IEEE Conference on Communications and Network Security (CNS) is a new
conference series in IEEE Communications Society (ComSoc) core conference
portfolio and the only ComSoc conference focusing solely on cyber security.
IEEE CNS is a spin-off of IEEE INFOCOM, the premier ComSoc conference on
networking. The goal of CNS is to provide an outstanding 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.

Building on the success of last year's inaugural conference, IEEE CNS 2014
seeks original high-quality technical papers from academia, government, and
industry. Topics of interest encompass all practical and theoretical aspects
of communications and network security, all the way from the physical layer
to the various network layers to the variety of applications reliant
on a secure communication substrate. Submissions with main contribution
in other areas, such as information security, software security, system
security, or applied cryptography, will also be considered if a clear
connection to secure communications/networking is demonstrated.
