=== COVID 19 advisory ===

Given the current uncertainty with travel and event organization restrictions caused by COVID-19, SPACE 2020 will be a virtual conference. SPACE 2020 will allow the online presentation of accepted papers, and there is no conference registration fee this time.

=== Posters submission ===

International Conference on Security, Privacy and Applied Cryptographic Engineering 2020 (SPACE 2020) is tenth in the series of conferences, which started in 2011. This annual event is devoted to various aspects of security, privacy, applied cryptography, and cryptographic engineering. SPACE 2020 will be held as a fully virtual conference. 

This year, we are organizing a poster session for showcasing works in progress for early-stage work in security and cryptographic engineering. The submissions will be non-archival and accepted posters will only be presented to the conference attendees. We invite young researchers (students, researchers who have recently completed their degree, researchers working in academia, industry or elsewhere) to present their ongoing research projects, challenges dealt with in their research domain and prospective new research directions that are in-line with the theme of the conference. 


The submissions will go through a light peer review process. Note that the first author of a poster submission should be a student. 

=== Poster awards ===

This year, ExplIoT (https://expliot.io/) is sponsoring three poster awards which will be chosen from the accepted posters: 

1. https://expliot.io/collections/boards/products/diva-nano-combo (WINNER)
2. https://expliot.io/products/diva-iot-board (1st runner up)
3. https://expliot.io/collections/boards/products/zigbee-auditor (2nd. runner up)

=== Submission instructions ===

The poster authors need to submit a title, names of authors/affiliations and an abstract (maximum 300 words) via email to SPACE 2020 email address: space2020@easychair.org.

The deadline for submission is December 1st, 2020. 

We will contact successful poster submissions with presentation instructions.
