25th International Conference on Fast Software Encryption

FSE 2018 is the 25th annual Fast Software Encryption conference. Since 2002 FSE is organized by the International Association for Cryptologic Research (IACR), a global organization with more than 1600 members that aims to bring together researchers in cryptology.

FSE focuses on fast and secure primitives for symmetric cryptography, that form the workhorse for all applications of cryptography (e.g AES, SNOW-3G, SHA-2 and SHA-3). The event covers a broad range of practical and theoretical topics including the design and analysis of block ciphers, stream ciphers, encryption schemes, hash functions, message authentication codes, authenticated encryption schemes, cryptanalysis and evaluation tools, and secure implementations. The FSE conference event tried to offer a unique opportunity for meeting more than 200 experts from academia and industry.

FSE 2018 plans to have renowned invited speakers. Past invited speakers include Prof. Adi Shamir (Turing Award Winner), Prof. Joan Daemen (designer of AES and SHA-3) and John Kelsey (NIST).
