The Fifth International Workshop on Lightweight Cryptography for Security & Privacy (LightSec 2016, lightsec.org) is a cryptographic workshop that aims to promote and initiate novel research on the security & privacy issues in lightweight applications, due to the associated constraints on metrics such as available power, energy, computing ability, area, execution time, latency, code size, and memory requirements. As such applications are becoming ubiquitous, definitely providing an immense value to the society, they are also affecting a greater portion of the public & leading to a plethora of economical & security and privacy related concerns. The goal of this workshop is to create a platform where these concerns can be addressed and prospective solutions are discussed and evaluated.
LightSec is being hosted by the Department of Electrical-Electronics Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Aksaray University, in cooperation with The International Association for Cryptologic Research (IACR) and with post-proceedings to be published by Springer in LNCS Series.
Attending LightSec ’16 is highly advised. Hereby, I invite you to participate this select workshop. Registration is now open. Let me know if I can be of any assistance in order to facilitate your participation.
