Cyber Security, Privacy and Trust (1st International Forum NEMESIS'20)
https://www.fedcsis.org/2020/nemesis

Nowadays, information security works as a backbone for protecting both 
user data and electronic transactions. Protecting communications and 
data infrastructures of an increasingly inter-connected world have 
become vital nowadays. Security has emerged as an important scientific 
discipline whose many multifaceted complexities deserve the attention 
and synergy of computer science, engineering, and information systems 
communities. Information security has some well-founded technical 
research directions which encompass access level (user authentication 
and authorization), protocol security, software security, and data 
cryptography. Moreover, some other emerging topics related to 
organizational security aspects have appeared beyond the long-standing 
research directions.

The International Forum of Cyber Security, Privacy, and Trust 
(NEMESIS’20) as a successor of International Conference on Cyber 
Security, Privacy, and Trust (INSERT’19) focuses on the diversityof the 
cyber information security developments and deployments in order to 
highlight the most recent challenges and report the most recent
