IEEE CNS 2024 is scheduled to take place in the vibrant city of Taipei, Taiwan. This event will be conducted in person, providing attendees with unparalleled opportunities for face-to-face networking and spontaneous interactions that foster stronger professional relationships and collaborations. However, we understand that some authors may encounter travel difficulties, such as obtaining visas. In such cases, assistance for remote presentation of their papers will be considered upon approval by the General Chairs. Please note that virtual participation in the conference will not be supported.

The IEEE Conference on Communications and Network Security (CNS) is a premier forum for cybersecurity researchers, engineers, practitioners, and policy makers to exchange ideas, techniques and tools related to all practical and theoretical aspects of communications and network security.
