The IEEE Conference on Communications and Network Security (CNS) is a premier forum for cyber security researchers, practitioners, policy makers, and users to exchange ideas, techniques and tools, raise awareness, and share experiences related to all practical and theoretical aspects of communications and network security.

Building on the success of the past years' conferences, IEEE CNS 2018 welcomes poster submissions to be presented during the conference. A poster submission should be a 2-page abstract, which summarizes the key merits of proposed ideas, presents initial results, and identifies challenges to develop a complete solution. Poster submissions will be evaluated by the Posters Session Committee based on the novelty and the potential to stimulate discussions and promote collaborations. Posters should be submitted via EDAS at https://edas.info/N24385. Please follow the same template for regular conference papers available on http://cns2018.ieee-cns.org.

IMPORTANT DATES
Deadline for poster submission: March 5, 2018
Notification to authors: March 26, 2018
Camera-ready version: April 2, 2018


INSTRUCTIONS FOR AUTHORS
The conference will arrange the poster session in a room where the posters can be displayed. An accepted poster must be presented by an author in the poster session to interested attendees. The abstract of the accepted posters will appear in the conference proceeding and be submitted to IEEE Xplore. Each accepted poster requires an author to register for the conference at the appropriate rate based on the membership level. Each author registration can cover up to three posters or papers of the conference, but each poster must have a dedicated presenter at the session.

A Best Poster Award will be given based on the poster's novelty and potentials in research. The quality of presentation and the interaction during the session will also be important criteria. The award will be announced in a plenary session of the main conference.
