    * software security (protocols, operating systems, etc.)
    * hardware security (smartcards, biometric technologies, etc.)
    * mobile security (properties for/from mobile agents, etc.)
    * network security (anti-virus, anti-hacker, anti-DoS tools, firewalls,
real-time monitoring, etc.)
    * alternatives to cryptography (steganography, etc.)
    * security-specific software development practices (vulnerability
testing, fault-injection resilience, etc.)
    * privacy and anonimity (trust management, pseudonimity, identity
management, etc.)
    * safety and dependability issues (reliability, survivability, etc.)
    * cyberlaw and cybercrime (copyrights, trademarks, defamation,
intellectual property, etc.)
    * security management and usability issues (security configuration,
policy management, usability trials etc.)
    * workflow and service security (business processes, web services, etc.)

Submission Guidelines
The submission guidelines must be strictly followed for a paper to be
considered.

Original papers from the above mentioned or other related areas will be
considered. Only full papers about original and unpublished research are
sought. Parallel submission to other conferences or other tracks of SAC 2010
is forbidden. Each paper must be BLIND in the sense that it must only
include its title but not mention anything about its authors. Self-reference
must be blind too. All submissions must be formatted using the ACM
conference-specific LaTeX style, which can be obtained from the symposium
web page.The standard extension of a submission in the stated format is 5
pages (approximately 5000 words). Longer papers (up to 8 pages maximum) will
imply an additional charge. All papers must be submitted by 8 September
2009.

There is a symposium-wide paper management system for SAC 2010, which
authors must use to submit their papers.
Review and publication of accepted papers
Each paper will be fully refereed and undergo a blind review process by at
least three referees.Accepted papers will be published in the ACM SAC 2010
proceedings. Some papers may only be accepted as poster papers, and will be
published as extended 2-page abstracts in the proceedings. According to the
authors' guidelines, which can be obtained from the symposium web page, at
least one author per paper must register before their paper is included in
the proceedings.
