We will focus on issues related to network and distributed system security, such as authentication, access control, confidentiality, integrity, availability, privacy, dependability and sustainability of distributed systems. Previously unpublished papers offering novel research contributions to the theoretical and practical aspects of security in distributed systems are solicited for submission. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Adaptive security * Applied cryptography * Authentication, authorization and access control * Big data for security * Cloud security * Computer and network forensics * Data mining, machine learning, and bio-inspired approaches for security * Digital rights management * Embedded system security * Internet and web security * Intrusion and malware detection and prevention * Risk analysis and risk management * Security and privacy in pervasive and ubiquitous computing * Security evaluation * Security of emerging technologies * Security modeling and simulation * Security policies * Security protocols * Software security * Survivability * Tamper resistance * Trust management * Trusted computing Important dates - Paper submission: 10th Sep, 2018 - Acceptance notification: 15th Oct, 2018 - Camera ready due: 18th Nov. 2018 - Conference: 13th - 15th Feb, 2019 Program Committee (TBD) SUBMISSION OF PAPERS Prospective authors should submit a full paper not exceeding 8 pages in the Conference proceedings format ( double-column, 10pt) to the conference main track through the EasyChair conference submission system (http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=pdp2019). The possibility to submit a paper to a special session will appear soon.   Double-bind review: the paper should not contain authors names and affiliations; in the reference list, references to the authors' own work entries should be substituted with the string "omitted for blind review”.   Publication: All accepted papers will be included in the same volume, published by the Conference Publishing Services (CPS). The Final Paper Preparation and Submission Instructions will be published after the notification of acceptance. Authors of accepted papers are expected to register and present their papers at the Conference. Conference proceedings will be submitted to IEEE explore, CDSL, and for indexing among others, to DBLP, Scopus ScienceDirect, and ISI Web of Knowledge.
