Works in Progress Submission Information and Form
Thank you for your interest in submitting a Works in Progress to ACSAC,
the Annual Computer Security Applications Conference.
The Works In Progress (WIP) session packs as many 5 minute presentations
as it can into one fast paced and popular session. These talks highlight
the most current work in both business and academia, emphasizing goals and
value add, accomplishments to date, and future plans. Special
consideration is given to topics that discuss real life security
experience, including system implementation, deployment, and lessons
learned.
When are WiP abstracts due?
The deadline for submitting Works in Progress abstracts is September 9.
What should I propose a WiP on?
If you are developing practical solutions to problems relating to
protecting your country's information infrastructure or a commercial
enterprise, consider submitting an abstract to the Annual Computer
Security Applications Conference. This internationally recognized
conference provides a forum for experts in information system security to
exchange innovative ideas about solving these critical problems.
We are looking for Works in Progress that address just about any security
topic, including:
Access control
Applied cryptography
Audit and audit reduction
Biometrics
Certification and accreditation
Database Security
Denial of service protection
Defensive information warfare
Electronic commerce security
Enterprise Security
Firewalls and other boundary control devices
Forensics
Identification and Authentication
Information Survivability
Insider threat protection
Integrity
Intellectual property rights protection
Incident response planning
Intrusion detection and event correlation

Special consideration will be given to Works in Progress abstracts that
discuss system implementation, deployment, and lessons learned.
How do I submit an abstract?
Abstracts should be 1-2 type-written pages in length and should briefly
describe the objectives of the current work, any accomplishments to date,
and future plans. Abstracts should be sent as pdf files to
wip_chair@acsac.org. Acceptance notifications will be sent out at the
