The 25th Conference on Selected Areas in Cryptography (SAC 2018) will take place at the University of Calgary in Alberta, Canada on August 15-17, 2018 and will be preceded by a summer school SAC Summer School (S3), August 13-14, 2018.
There are four areas covered at each SAC conference. Three of the areas are permanent:
Design and analysis of symmetric key primitives and cryptosystems, including block and stream ciphers, hash function, MAC algorithms, cryptographic permutations, and authenticated encryption schemes,
Efficient implementations of symmetric and public key algorithms and
Mathematical and algorithmic aspects of applied cryptology.
