Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue will comprise mainly extended versions of papers presented at the 28th Australasian Conference on Information Security and Privacy (ACISP 2023, in Brisbane, Australia on 5–7 July 2023, https://www.qut.edu.au/about/faculty-of-science/school-of-computer-science/acisp). This Special Issue seeks original papers presenting novel research results on all aspects of information security and privacy.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been previously published, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere. Extended versions of ACISP-2023 papers should cite the original paper and contain at least 50% new content (e.g., in the form of technical extensions, more in-depth evaluations, or additional use cases). Further, these extended papers should not exceed 30% copy/paste from the original conference paper.
This Special Issue also welcomes original papers (not accepted for ACISP 2023) presenting theories, techniques, implementations, applications and practical experiences on a variety of topics. Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- Access control;
- Authentication;
- Blockchain technology;
- Cryptocurrency;
- Cryptology;
- IoT security;
- Key management;
- Lightweight security;
- Post-quantum cryptography;
- Privacy issues in applications;
- Security protocols.
