The scope of SecureComm 2006 has been broadened since the inaugural 2005 event. SecureComm seeks high-quality research contributions in the form of well-developed full papers. Topics of interest encompass research advances in ALL areas of secure communications and networking. Topics in other areas (e.g., formal methods, database security, secure software, theoretical cryptography) will be considered only if a clear connection to private or secure communication/networking is demonstrated.

SecureComm brings together security and privacy experts in academia, industry and government as well as practitioners, standards developers and policy makers. SecureComm also serves as a venue for learning about state-of-the-art in security and privacy research. Presentations reporting on cutting-edge research results are supplemented by panels on controversial issues and invited talks on timely and important topics.
