Call for Papers

WEB3SEC brings together blockchain and security researchers, practitioners, industry experts to discuss novel improvements to the security of blockchain systems. Topics of discussion include security techniques and approaches that can serve as building blocks for better distributed ledgers.

In structure, WEB3SEC follows the traditional open format primarily based on submitted and reviewed work; accepted publications will appear in the WEB3SEC proceedings. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

* Smart contract exploitation & verification
* Zero-knowledge proofs & rollups
* Privacy & anonymity in blockchain
* Attacks on proof of stake
* Nothing at stake & grinding
* Long-range attacks
* Network communication security
* Gossip protocols
* Peer-to-peer communication
* Impacts on consensus
* Access control in blockchain systems
* Identity and authentication
* Byzantine-tolerant algorithms
* Blockchain-facilitated cybercrime
* Cryptographic primitives
* Distributed virtual machines
* Web3 exploits
* Formal verification of distributed protocols
* Distributed decision making & voting schemes
* Tool-assisted security analysis
* Simulation & modeling
* Empirical datasets
* Attack post-mortems


Submission Instructions

Submissions should be at most 6 pages excluding references, and use the double-column ACM proceedings format (acmart) template, with the [sigconf, anonymous] options.

Please submit your manuscript via EasyChair at the submission link:
https://easychair.org/conferences/submissions?a=29310806

Reviewing will be double-blind. Author names and affiliations should not appear in the paper, and authors should make a reasonable effort not to reveal their identities or institutional affiliation.

Authors and Program Committee members are required to indicate any conflict of interest. Advisors and those that they are advising, as well as authors and PC members with an institutional relationship are considered to share a conflict of interest. Professional collaborations within the past 2 years or close personal relationships also constitute a conflict of interest.

You may contact the PC chairs at tpc@web3sec.ws

Publication

The accepted workshop papers and slides will be published on the ACSAC website.
