ISC is an annual international conference covering research and applications on information security. It was first initiated as a workshop (ISW) in Japan in 1997, and then changed to the current name when it was held in Spain in 2001. The latest two conferences were held in UK (ISC'03) and USA (ISC'04), respectively.

ISC'05 will be held in Singapore on September 20-23, 2005. Continuing its past success, ISC'05 aims to attract high quality papers in all technical aspects of information security. The conference proceedings will be published by Springer in its LNCS series. Selected papers in the ISC'05 proceedings will be invited for submission to a special issue of International Journal of Information Security.
