International Conference on Applications and Techniques in Information Security (ATIS2014)
26-28/11/2014, Melbourne, Australia

Conference Scope

The 2014 International Conference on Applications and Technologies in Information Security (ATIS), will be the fifth event in the ATIS series, which started in 2010.

As academic research in information security has developed over the last twenty or so years, applications and techniques are being developed to be of specific use in this area. These include wavelets and their applications in digital forensics, classification algorithms for use in malicious software detection, and genetic algorithms custom-made for the cryptographic community, etc.

ATIS 2014 focuses on all aspects on techniques and applications in information security research. The purpose of ATIS is to provide a forum for presentation and discussion of innovative ideas, research results, applications and experience from around the world as well as highlight activities in the related areas. The annual ATIS conference highlights new results in the design and analysis of digital security hardware and software implementations. ATIS provides a valuable connection between the theoretical and implementation communities and attracts participants from industry, academia, and government organizations. 

As well as a single track of high-quality presentations, ATIS 2014 will offer invited talks, hands-on training in a computer lab, digital competitions and a special school for PhD and Master students. 

Accepted papers will appear in the proceedings to be published as Springer's Communications in Computer and Information Science Series (http://www.springer.com/series/7899). Selected top quality papers accepted and presented in the ATIS2014 will be invited for extension for the special issues of some international journals, including Concurrency and Computation: Practise and Experience (SCI-indexed, ERA2010 rank A).
