* Watermarking (attacks, security, algorithms)
* Anonymity and privacy
* Steganography and steganalysis
* Multimedia security
* Other hiding domains (e.g. text, software, etc.)
* Information assurance
* Digital forensics
* Covert / subliminal channels
* Theoretical aspects of information hiding
* Intrusion detection
* Digital rights management

Instructions for Authors

Interested parties are invited to submit novel papers on research and
practice which are related to the above areas of interest. Claims about
information hiding technology, such as robustness or steganographic
security, must be backed by strong evidence in the paper (such as
mathematical proofs, statistical modeling or extensive testing). 

Submissions must not substantially overlap papers that have been published
or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a conference with
proceedings. Submissions should follow the Springer Lecture Notes in
Computer Science (LNCS) format and should be no more than 15 pages including
the bibliography and well-marked appendices. Accepted papers will appear in
the proceedings published by Springer in the LNCS series. For more
information about paper submission formats, see the guidelines in
www.springer.com. 

Authors can submit their manuscripts on-line on the conference website where
detailed instructions are provided. Submissions received after the
submission deadline or failing to conform to the guidelines risk rejection
without consideration of their merits. 

Important: The review process will be double-blind. The submitted papers
should be anonymized avoiding obvious references and pointers, that would
clearly indicate the source of the submitted paper.
