The Second International Workshop on
Modern Cryptography and Security Engineering
MoCrySEn 2013 - Final Call For Papers
Aims and Objective

Workshop Chairs

The Second International Workshop on Modern Cryptographyand Security Engineering (co-located with the International
Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security) aims tobring together researchers working in theoretical aspects ofmodern cryptography (including but not restricted to design
and analysis of symmetric-key primitives and cryptosystems,
block and stream ciphers, hash functions and MAC algorithms,
efficient implementations and analysis of public-key cryptosystems, public-key signatures, threshold schemes) with professionals working on applied aspects of security engineering, particularly people involved in standardization and in industrial
deployment of cryptography (encryption schemes for databases
and related security, cryptography in wireless applications,hardware for cryptanalysis, digital signatures, FPGA and smart
cards security). The main goal of the workshop is to strengthen
the dialogue between these two groups, which is currently perceived to be weak. Ultimately, we aim to continue bridging
the gap between what academic cryptographers believe shouldbe the goals of cryptographic design and what is actually implemented in the real world. MoCrySEn intends to provide
a better understanding of real-world cryptographic issues tothe theoretical community, helping to inform their researchand set new research challenges for the theoretical community and enable practitioners to develop a clearer view of thecurrent state-of-the-art in cryptographic research and what it
offers to practitioners.

Topics of Interest
include, but are not limited to:
I Symmetric cryptography

Submission Guidelines
As MoCrySEn is co-located with the ARES conference http://www.
ares-conference.eu, anonymized submissions are required, in orderto ensure a double blind review. In addition, submitted papers must
conform to the “Springer LNCS Series” format http://www.springer.
de/comp/lncs/authors.html and they must not exceed more than
12 pages, excluding well-marked appendices and bibliography. For moredetails, regarding the submission procedure please consult the workshop’s
webpage at http://mocrysen2013.inria.fr or contact the workshop
chairs.

Proceedings
All accepted papers of the workshop will be published by
Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS)
with IFIP logo (indexed by EI) joint with the proceedings of
the CD-ARES conference. The proceedings will be available
at the workshop. At least one author of an accepted paper
must register at the ARES 2013 site and present the paper
at the workshop.
