-----------------

Call for Paper:

-----------------



Since its inception in 1997, the International Symposium on Research in Attacks, Intrusions and Defenses (RAID) has established itself as a venue where leading researchers and practitioners from academia, industry, and the government are given the opportunity to present novel research in a unique venue to an engaged and lively community.



The conference is known for the quality and thoroughness of the reviews of the papers submitted, the desire to build a bridge between research carried out in different communities, and the emphasis given on the need for sound experimental methods and measurement to improve the state of the art in cybersecurity.



We are soliciting research papers on topics covering all well-motivated computer security problems. We care about techniques that identify new real-world threats, techniques to prevent them, to detect them, to mitigate them or to assess their prevalence and their consequences. Measurement papers are encouraged, as well as papers offering public access to new tools or datasets, or experience papers that clearly articulate important lessons learned



-----------------

Specific topics of interest to RAID include, but are not limited to:



Cloud security

Cybercrime and underground economies

Cyber-physical systems security and threats against critical infrastructures

Denial-of-Service attacks and defenses

Digital forensics

Hardware security

Intrusion detection and prevention

IoT security

Machine learning for security

Malware and unwanted software

Mobile security and privacy

Network security

Program analysis and reverse engineering

Security education and training

Security measurement studies

Security of machine learning systems

Software security

Systems security

Statistical and adversarial learning for computer security

Usable security and privacy

Vulnerability analysis and exploitation techniques

Web security and privacy

Papers will be judged on novelty, significance, correctness, and clarity. We expect all papers to provide enough detail to enable the reproducibility of their experimental results. We encourage authors to make both the tools and data publicly available.
