                      CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

--------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------

Information and communication security must provide technological
solutions to the tension between the accelerating growth of social,
economical and governmental demand for digitalization of
information on the one hand, and on the other, the legal and
ethical obligation to protect the individuals and organizations
involved.

The 2010 International Conference on Information and Communications
Security (ICICS 2010) will be the 12th event in the ICICS
conference series, started in 1997, which brought together lead
researchers and engineers involved in multiple disciplines of
information and communications security, to foster the exchange of
ideas in aspects including, but not limited to, authentication and
authorization, distributed and mobile systems security, e-commerce,
fraud control, intellectual property protection, operating system
security, anonymity and privacy, and trusted computing.

In response to the call for papers, 135 submissions were received
to this year’s installment of the conference series. Each paper
received at least three peerreviews on the basis of its
significance, novelty, technical quality and relevance to this
event. The highly competitive selection process could accept only
31 papers, subject to a final revision before publication.
