Contribution paths

A strong submission should clearly identify its contribution and evaluate it appropriately.

Research Papers

Original, previously unpublished papers offering novel research contributions in security or privacy. Must be anonymized, not exceed 13 pages of body text, and include a clear connection to security or privacy.

Systematization of Knowledge (SoK) Papers

Papers that evaluate, systematize, and contextualize existing knowledge in security or privacy. Must be prefixed with 'SoK:' in the title and are held to the same standards as research papers but emphasize community value over novelty.

Posters

Poster abstracts presenting novel, recent, or work-in-progress security and privacy research. Abstracts are three pages long, not part of the proceedings, but will be included in an open repository. Authors must present in person.

Policies worth checking twice

  • Submissions must be original and not under review elsewhere; simultaneous submission to other venues with proceedings or journals is grounds for automatic rejection.
  • Papers must be anonymized: no author names, affiliations, or identifying acknowledgments; previous work must be cited in third person.
  • Page limit is 13 pages of body text for research and SoK papers; references and appendices are unlimited but not expected to be read by reviewers.
  • Papers must use the official IEEE LaTeX A4 template provided by the conference; failure to comply may result in desk rejection.
  • Authors must disclose any AI-generated content (text, figures, code) in the acknowledgments, including the AI system used and specific sections affected; grammar editing disclosure is recommended but not required.
  • Authors must provide a Data Availability statement explaining how artifacts for reproducibility will be shared or why they cannot be shared.
  • Authors must address potential harms of their research and its publication; failure to do so may result in rejection regardless of quality.
  • No changes to the author list are permitted after submission.
