Important: ACNS’20 organizing team has been closely monitoring the situation of COVID-19. The safety and well-being of all conference participants is our top priority. After careful evaluation, we decide to run ACNS’20 virtually. The dates of the conference will remain the same. We apologize for any inconvenience that may have caused. More details regarding the conference program will be available soon.

Welcome to ACNS 2020, to be held in Rome, Italy, from October 19 until October 22, 2020.

ACNS is an annual conference focusing on current developments that advance the areas of applied cryptography and its application to systems and network security. The goal is to represent both academic research works as well as developments in industrial and technical frontiers.

ACNS receives strong supports in the communities of cryptography and security, which is reflected from its organizers, program committee, and very competitive paper acceptance rate.
