2025 CAE in Cybersecurity Community Symposium - CAE-CD Track

We will be using the EasyChair platform to facilitate the submission and peer review process. A one-page extended abstract (from CAE-CD Community members) for 20-minute presentations/mini workshops, 10-minute lightning talks, or an unaccompanied poster is encouraged—limit of three proposals per academic institution. Please review the submission requirements in the Author’s Guidelines.
