The conference welcomes both theoretical as well as systems contributions. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to
The proceedings of ACM WiSec, sponsored by SIGSAC, will be published by the ACM.
Full paper submissions to ACM WiSec 2021 can be up to 10 pages in the ACM conference style excluding the bibliography and well-marked appendices, and up to 12 pages in total. ACM WiSec also encourages the submission of short papers with a length of up to 6 pages (including bibliography and appendices), which describe mature work of a more succinct nature. All papers must be thoroughly anonymized for double-blind reviewing. Detailed submission instructions are available on the WiSec 2021 website at https://nyuad.nyu.edu/wisec21.
For the first time in WiSec, we solicit Systematization of Knowledge (SoK) papers that evaluate, systematize, and contextualize existing knowledge on any of the above topics. Suitable papers provide an important new viewpoint on an established research area, support or challenge long-held beliefs with compelling evidence, present a convincing new taxonomy of such an area, and/or identify research gaps with evidence and a structured approach. Survey papers without such contributions are not suitable. SoK submissions will be distinguished by the prefix “SoK:” in the title and a checkbox on the submission form. They will be reviewed by the program committee and held to the same standards as regular research papers, except instead of emphasizing novel research contributions the emphasis will be on value to the community. Accepted papers will be presented at the symposium and included in the proceedings.
WiSec will solicit submission of posters and demos. The instructions to submit posters/demos will be made available on the WiSec 2021 website.
WiSec will again offer a replicability label for reproducible results. Authors are encouraged to plan ahead when running their experiments to minimize the overhead of applying for this label. The process of reviewing the work for replicability will be largely similar to the previous years.
It is a policy of the ACM to disallow double/simultaneous submissions, where the same (or substantially similar) paper is concurrently submitted to multiple conferences/journals. Any double submissions detected will be immediately rejected from all conferences/journals involved.
ACM WiSec will host workshops/tutorial co-organized with the main conference. Details will be made available on the website.
