This volume contains the papers selected for presentation at the 18th International Conference on Information Security (SEC2003) and at the associated workshops. The conference and workshops were sponsored by the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) and held in Athens, Greece in May 2003.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Information Security Conference, ISC 2009, held in Pisa, Italy, September 7-9, 2009.The 29 revised full papers and 9 revised short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 105 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on analysis techniques, hash functions, database security and biometrics, algebraic attacks and proxy re-encryption, distributed system security, identity management and authentication, applied cryptography, access control, MAC and nonces, and P2P and Web services.

These proceedings contain the papers accepted at the 2007 European PKI Workshop: Theory and Practice (EuroPKI 2007), held in Palma de Mallorca, Spain, during June 28-30, and hosted by the Computer Science Department of the University of Balearic Islands (UIB) with the support of the Balearic Islands Government and the Private Law Department at UIB. This year's event was the fourth event in the EuroPKI Workshops series. Previous events of the series were held in: Samos, Greece (2004); Kent, UK (2005); and Turin, Italy, (2006). In response to the call for papers, 77 papers were submitted to this year's workshop, setting a record of the highest number of papers submitted to an EuroPKI event so far and confirming an increased interest in PKI research and in the EuroPKI event. Each paper was reviewed by three members of the Program Committee, and evaluated on the basis of its significance, novelty, technical quality and relevance to the workshop. The paper selection process was very competitive: of the papers submitted, only 21 full papers and 8 short papers were selected for presentation at the workshop and inclusion in this volume.
