Joint Workshop on Foundations of Computer Security and Formal and Computational Cryptography
Date: Jul 18, 2014 8:00 am – Jul 18, 2014 5:00 pm
Location: Vienna, Austria
Computer security is an established field of computer science of both theoretical and practical significance. In recent years, there has been sustained interest in logic-based foundations for various methods in computer security, including the formal specification, analysis, and design of cryptographic protocols and their applications; the formal definition of various aspects of security such as access control mechanisms, mobile code security and denial-of-service attacks; and the modeling of information flow and its application to confidentiality policies, system composition, and covert channel analysis.
The aim of the FCS-FCC 2014 workshop is to provide a forum for continued activity in this area. Historically, FCS has contributed to bringing computer security researchers in closer contact with the LICS community, and given LICS attendees an opportunity to talk to experts in computer security. FCC, traditionally affiliated with CSF, provides a dedicated venue to present recent advances in the field of computationally-sound cryptographic protocol analysis. Both these areas---logical foundations and protocol analysis---are of interest to large subsets of the CSF community.
