----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Multimedia security and digital forensics is an active research area considering the ever-expanding areas including social media and IoT. Digital forensics has become a challenging one as we need more tools that are less pervasive and intervening on well established social platforms. In the last decade a large number of multimedia security and forensic techniques have been proposed. However, most of these solutions adopt very limiting and simplifying working conditions and inappropriate for real-world deployment. The symposium on Multimedia Security and Digital Forensics (MSDF’17) will serve as a platform for researchers to share novel ideas, techniques and communicate with international peers.

Submission and Publication Information

The accepted papers from this symposium will be published by Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science (EI indexed). Submitted papers must not substantially overlap with papers that have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a conference with proceedings. Papers must be clearly presented in English, must not exceed 10 pages (or 14 pages with the over length charge), including tables, figures, references and appendixes, in Springer LNCS Format with Portable Document Format (.pdf). Please submit your paper at https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=msdf2017.

Papers will be evaluated based on their originality, significance, relevance, and clarity of presentation assessed by at least three reviewers from respective research areas. All accepted papers will be published by Springer LNCS (EI-Indexed).
