WISA is one of the main security research venues hosted by the Korea Institute of Information Security and Cryptology (KIISC) and sponsored by the Ministry of Science, ICT and Future Planning (MSIP), and co-sponsored by the Electronics & Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI), the Korea Internet & Security Agency (KISA), and the National Security Research   Institute (NSR). The primary focus of WISA 2022 will be on systems and network security including all other technical and practical aspects of security applications.  This year, in particular, we will be inviting participations from researchers working on 5G/6G, AI, and Advanced IoT who are keen on bringing the latest open security challenges.

The areas of interest include, but are not limited to the following: 

     Analysis of network and security protocols    
     Anonymity and censorship-resistant technologies
    Applications of cryptographic techniques                        
     Authentication and authorization
    Automated tools for source code/binary analysis 
     Automobile security    
     Botnet defense
    Blockchain security
