SSR2025: Security Standards Research Conference 2025

In the past two decades, cybersecurity standards have advanced significantly and many of them have become very widely used. Despite their widespread use, it is essential to continually revise existing standards and develop new standards to cover emerging domains, such as post-quantum cryptography, fully homomorphic encryption, 6G and artificial intelligence. The purpose of the 2025 SSR conference is to discuss the numerous research challenges arising from studies of existing standards, the development of revisions to these standards, and the exploration of entirely new areas of standardization. Many security standards bodies are only beginning to address the issue of transparency, ensuring that the process of selecting security techniques for standardization is as scientific and unbiased as possible. This conference aims to cover the entire range of security standardisation research.Topicsinclude, but are not limited to, developments in cryptographic techniques, security management, security evaluation criteria, security policy, network security, privacy and identity management, as well as technologies such as smart cards and RFID tags, biometrics, and security modules. It also covers industry-specific security standards, including those created by the payments, telecommunications, and computing sectors for systems like payment protocols, mobile telephony, and trusted computing. Through in-depth research presentations and open discussions, the conference aims to advance the field of security standardization, fostering a collaborative environment for both revising existing standards and developing new ones to address the evolving challenges in cybersecurity.

This conference invites submissions addressing, though not exclusively, the following areas: cryptographic protocols, cybersecurity, it security and standardisation.
