Main Tracks

Two main tracks: Cryptography and Security of Computer Systems and Communication Networks

Each track has two types of submission:

• Full papers (up to 14 pages) that must present a research work developed to the point of bringing original and relevant results, duly validated and discussed.
• Short papers (up to 6 pages) that must describe an ongoing research work, practical experiments, or a combination of these contributions.

Double-blind review: All papers will be evaluated by a body of experts following a double-blind review process (without identification of authorship, responsible for the reviews and their institutions).

Papers in Portuguese or English:

• Formatting according to the model available on the SBC portal for publishing papers (Template link), sent exclusively in PDF format, through the SBC JEMS system (Submission link)

Best Paper Awards:

• An Award Committee will award the best papers among those presented at the event.
