## Call for papers

PKC 2027 will take place in Taipei, Taiwan on March 1-4, 2027. PKC 2027 is organized by the International Association for Cryptologic Research (IACR). The proceedings will be published by Springer in the LNCS series. Original contributions on all technical aspects of cryptology are solicited for submission to PKC 2027, the 30th annual conference on public key cryptography. In more detail, areas of interest include research on: public-key schemes, such as their design and analysis (including side channel attacks), from its math to actual systems; the design, proposal, and analysis of cryptographic primitives and protocols; public-key techniques in MPC or other protocols This year, we welcome submissions on the theme of side-channel-attack-resilient software implementations of public-key schemes. These submissions must still meet the acceptance criteria above. Please note that pure information-theoretic and symmetric key subjects (e.g., block cipher design and attacks) are not in scope. Program committee members are permitted to submit either 3 co-authored papers, or at most 4 co-authored papers all with students. We expect registered participants to attend the conference and present their work in person. However, we will provide options for remote presentation if necessary. For each accepted paper, we require at least one regular registration from an author.
