The 18th European Workshop on Systems Security (EuroSec) aims to bring together researchers, practitioners, system administrators, system programmers, and others interested in the latest advances in the security of computer systems and networks. The objective of the workshop is to discuss novel, practical, systems-oriented work. The workshop will precede the EuroSys 2025 conference.
EuroSec encourages systems security researchers to share early iterations of bleeding-edge ideas with the community, before they are further developed into full papers. Reciprocally, authors receive feedback to help steer and improve their research to its full potential. Many EuroSec papers later form the basis for full conference papers presented at one of the top venues in computer security.
EuroSec seeks contributions on all aspects of systems security. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
In accordance with the spirit of EuroSys, we also seek:
You are invited to submit papers of up to 6 pages in double-column ACM format, excluding the bibliography. Submitted papers must use the latest ACM sigconf proceedings template. You should not modify key aspects of the template, such as font face, spacing, etc. The template, as well as instructions on how to use it, can be found here. All submission should be anonymized; papers that have not been properly anonymized may be rejected without review.
All submissions will be reviewed by the Program Committee. Only original, novel work will be considered for publication. Accepted papers will be published in the Proceedings of EuroSec in the ACM Digital Library. One author of each accepted paper is required to attend the workshop and present the paper for it to be included in the proceedings.
Submissions should be made online at https://eurosec25.hotcrp.com.
The procedures of paper submission, selection, and publication will be similar to the procedures followed in the past EuroSec workshops. We expect to announce the Call for Papers in December and January and have a paper submission deadline around February 14, 2025, after the EuroSys notification deadline. We expect the Call for Papers (as well as Call for Participation later) to be widely publicized by the PC members and most importantly by the Publicity Chair who will be appointed by the PC co-chairs.
Each of the submitted papers will be peer-reviewed by 3-4 members of the Program Committee. All the reviews and discussions will be supported by an online conference management system (HotCRP). Based on each paper’s reviews and on the discussion among the PC members, a short list of about 7-9 accepted papers will be compiled. In addition to the presentation of the accepted technical papers, we expect to complement the Technical Program with one or two invited keynote talk(s) and/or panel. In case we organize a panel, we expect the panel to be forward-looking into a topic of interest to researchers in the field.
The Program Committee will be composed of well-known members of the systems and security community who have published their work in distinguished places such as SOSP, OSDI, EuroSys, ASPLOS, USENIX Security, IEEE S&P, CCS, NDSS, etc. We would like the papers to be published in the ACM Digital Library, as was done last year for EuroSec 2024.
Registration Information: Registration to EuroSec 2025 must be made through EuroSys 2025 registration page: as the main conference, the workshop will be held on March 30 in CEST timezone.
Last but not least, there is NO registration fee - thanks ACM/EuroSys - so what are you waiting for? Register to attend and participate in what is going to be a great workshop 🙂.
