The LNCS series reports state-of-the-art results in computer science research, development, and education, at a high level and in both printed and electronic form. Enjoying tight cooperation with the R & D community, with numerous individuals, as well as with prestigious organizations and societies, LNCS has grown into the most comprehensive computer science research forum available. The scope of LNCS, including its subseries LNAI and LNBI, spans the whole range of computer science and information technology including interdisciplinary topics in a variety of application fields. The type of material published traditionally includes proceedings (published in time for the respective conference) post-proceedings (consisting of thoroughly revised final full papers) research monographs (which may be based on outstanding PhD work, research projects, technical reports, etc.) More recently, several color-cover sublines have been added featuring, beyond a collection of papers, various added-value components; these sublines include tutorials (textbook-like monographs or collections of lectures given at advanced courses) state-of-the-art surveys (offering complete and mediated coverage of a topic) hot topics (introducting emergent topics to the broader community) In parallel to the printed book, each new volume is published electronically in LNCS Online.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the First International Conference on Cryptology and Information Security in Latin America, LATINCRYPT 2010, held in Puebla, Mexico, on August 8-11, 2010. The 19 papers presented together with four invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 62 submissions. The topics covered are encryption, elliptic curves, implementation of pairings, implementation of cryptographic algorithms, cryptographic protocols and foundations, cryptanalysis of symmetric primitives, post-quantum cryptography, and side-channel attacks.

This book constitutes the refereed post-conference proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Cryptology and Information Security in Latin America, LATINCRYPT 2017, held in Havana, Cuba, in September 2017. The 20 papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 64 submissions. They are organized in the following topical sections: security protocols; public-key implementation; cryptanalysis; theory of symmetric-key cryptography; multiparty computation and privacy; new constructions; and adversarial cryptography.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Cryptology and Information Security in Latin America, LATINCRYPT 2012, held in Santiago, Chile, on October 7-10, 2012. The 17 papers presented together with four invited talks and one student poster session were carefully reviewed and selected from 47 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on elliptic curves, cryptographic protocols, implementations, foundations, and symmetric-key cryptography.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Cryptology and Information Security in Latin America, LatinCrypt 2015, held in Guadalajara, Mexico, in August 2015.
