In recent years, computer applications and Internet services have been contributing extensively to our life experience and, simultaneously, they are vulnerable and undergo permanent attacks. The objective of the Cryptography and System Security (CSS’11) Workshop is to present research and developing activities original unpublished results related to all aspects of cryptography and network security. We invite both theoretical, applied research papers, case studies, implementation experiences as well as work-in-progress presentations. We specially invite young researchers and PhD students to submit their results for Introduction presentation in CSS’11.

The papers accepted after peer review will be published in a Special Issue of the Journal Annales UMCS ser. Informatica: www.versitaopen.com/aui

The main topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- network security
- cryptography and data protection
- peer-to-peer security
- wireless networks security
- security of sensor networks
- heterogeneous networks security
- privacy-enhancing methods
- covert channels
- steganography and watermarking for security applications
- security of webservices
- cryptographic protocols
- security as quality of service, quality of protection
