This book constitutes the refereed conference proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Security and Privacy in Communications Networks, SecureComm 2016, held in Guangzhou, China, in October 2016. The 32 revised full papers and 18 poster papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 137 submissions. The papers are organized thematically starting with mobile and network security, followed by applied cryptography, web security and privacy, system security, hardware security. The volume also includes papers from the ATCS workshop and the poster session.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Information Security Practice and Experience Conference, ISPEC 2006, held in Hangzhou, China, in April 2006. The 35 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 307 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections.

PKC2004wasthe7thInternationalWorkshoponPracticeandTheoryinPublic Key Cryptography and was sponsored by IACR, the International Association for Cryptologic Research (www. iacr. org). This year the workshop was organized 2 in cooperation with the Institute for Infocomm Research (I R), Singapore. There were 106 paper submissions from 19 countries to PKC 2004. That is the highest submission number in PKC history. Due to the large number of submissionsandthehighqualityofthe submittedpapers, notallthepapersthat contained new ideas were accepted. Of the 106 submissions, 32 were selected for the proceedings. Each paper was sent to at least 3 members of the Program Committee for comments. The revised versions of the accepted papers were not checked for correctness of their scienti?c aspects and the authors bear the full responsibility for the contents of their papers. Some authors will write ?nal versions of their papers for publication in refereed journals. I am very grateful to the members of the Program Committee for their hard work in the di?cult task of selecting fewer than 1 in 3 of the submitted papers, as well as the following external referees who helped the Program Committee: Nuttapong Attrapadung, RobertoMariaAvanzi, GildasAvoine, JoonsangBaek, Qingjun Cai, Jae Choon Cha, Chien-Ning Chen, Liqun Chen, Xiaofeng Chen, Koji Chida, Nicolas T.

As a fast-evolving new area, RFID security and privacy has quickly grown from a hungry infant to an energetic teenager during recent years. Much of the exciting development in this area is summarized in this book with rigorous analyses and insightful comments. In particular, a systematic overview on RFID security and privacy is provided at both the physical and network level. At the physical level, RFID security means that RFID devices should be identified with assurance in the presence of attacks, while RFID privacy requires that RFID devices should be identified without disclosure of any valuable information about the devices. At the network level, RFID security means that RFID information should be shared with authorized parties only, while RFID privacy further requires that RFID information should be shared without disclosure of valuable RFID information to any honest-but-curious server which coordinates information sharing. Not only does this book summarize the past, but it also provides new research results, especially at the network level. Several future directions are envisioned to be promising for advancing the research in this area.
