ESORICS 2020 : European Symposium on Research in Computer Security

Overview

ESORICS is the annual European research event in Computer Security. The Symposium started in 1990 and has been held in several European countries, attracting a wide international audience from both the academic and industrial communities. Papers offering novel research contributions in computer security are solicited for submission to the 2020 Symposium, to be held in Guildford, UK. The primary focus is on original, high quality, unpublished research and implementation experiences. We encourage submissions of papers discussing industrial research and development.
Submitted papers must not substantially overlap with papers that have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a conference/workshop with proceedings. The symposium proceedings will be published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series (LNCS). In addition, the Journal of Computer Security will publish a special issue containing selected papers from the ESORICS 2020 Proceedings. As in previous years ESORICS will present a Best Paper Award chosen by the Program Committee. This award is generously sponsored by Springer.
