CALL FOR PAPERS


General Information

Fast Software Encryption is a seven-year-old workshop on symmetric cryptography, including the design and cryptanalysis of block and stream ciphers, as well as hash functions. The first Fast Software Encryption Workshop was held in Cambridge in 1993, followed by Leuven in 1994, Cambridge in 1996, Haifa in 1997,  Paris in 1998, Rome in 1999, and New York in 2000.
