Important Dates
---------------
Paper submission:   15 December 2014
Notification:       9  February 2015
Final Version:    4  March 2015
Workshop:        13-14 April 2015

Scope
-----
Side-channel analysis (SCA) and implementation attacks have become an
important field of research at universities and in the industry. In order
to enhance the resistance of cryptographic and security critical
implementations within the design phase, constructive attacks and analyzing
techniques may serve as a quality metric to optimize the design and
development process. Since 2010, COSADE provides an international platform
for researchers, academics, and industry participants to present their work
and their current research topics. It is an excellent opportunity to
exchange on new results with international experts and to initiate new
collaborations and information exchange at a professional level. The
workshop will feature both invited presentations and contributed talks.

The sixth International Workshop on Constructive Side-Channel Analysis and
Secure Design is organized by TU Berlin, Germany.

The topics of COSADE 2015 include, but are not limited to:

- Constructive side-channel analysis and implementation attacks
- Semi-invasive, invasive and fault attacks
- Leakage models and security models for side-channel analysis
- Cache-attacks and micro-architectural analysis
- Decapsulation and preparation techniques
- Side-channel based reverse engineering
- Leakage Resilient Implementations
- Evaluation methodologies for side-channel resistant designs
- Secure designs and countermeasures
- Evaluation platforms and tools for testing side-channel characteristics
- Metrics for security against implementation attacks

Submitted papers should present novel contributions related to the topics
listed above. They must be original, unpublished, anonymous and not
submitted to another conference or journal for consideration of
publication. Papers must be written in English and they should not exceed
$15$ pages and be compliant with LNCS template. Submissions not meeting
these guidelines risk rejection without consideration of their merits. All
submissions will be blind-refereed. Authors are invited to submit their
manuscripts (PDF or PS format) by filling in the submission form available
on the following web site:
http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cosade2015.

Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the authors to
register and present the paper. The proceedings will be published as a
Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science volume.
