Abstract

The annual ACM CCS conference is a leading international forum for computer and communications security researchers, practitioners, developers, and users to explore cutting-edge ideas and results, and to exchange techniques, tools, and experiences. ACM CCS is the flagship event of the ACM Special Interest Group of Security, Audit and Control (SIGSAC). Its acceptance rate is around 15-20%, which makes it a highly selective conference. This grant provides support for 32 students to attend ACM CCS and associated workshops. Preference will be given to undergraduate students participating in the poster session, and students with papers in the conference or associated workshops who do not have other sources of support. Participation by women and underrepresented groups will also be encouraged.
