===================
CONFERENCE OUTLINE:

We are looking for papers with high quality, original and unpublished
research contributions. The Symposium will start on September 26, 2022
with an exciting technical program, including vetted papers, invited
talks, poster and panel discussions as well as collocated workshops.
Important Dates:
-----------------
This year’s symposium will have two review cycles. All submissions must
be received by 11:59 p.m. any where on earth Time on the day of the
corresponding deadline.

■ Camera ready due: August 10, 2022
Abstract submissions:
----------------------
You will need to submit your title and abstract by 11:59 pm, any where
on earth, on the day of the corresponding deadline through the
Symposium‘s EasyChair websites by following instructions on how to make
a submission (https://easychair.org/help/how_to_submit).
Paper submissions:
-------------------
Submitted papers must not substantially overlap with papers that have
been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a
conference / workshop with proceedings. The symposium proceedings will
be published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series
(LNCS). In addition, the Journal of Computer Security will publish a
special issue containing selected papers from the ESORICS 2022
proceedings. As in previous years, ESORICS will present a Best Paper
Award chosen by the Program Committee. This award is generously
sponsored by Springer.
How to submit your paper:
-------------------------
Submitted papers must follow the LNCS template from the time they are
submitted. Submitted papers should be at most 16 pages (using 10-point
font), excluding the bibliography and well-marked appendices, and at
most 20 pages total. Committee members are not required to read the
appendices, so the paper should be intelligible without them. All
submissions must be written in English.
Submissions must be uploaded to the following EasyChair website:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=esorics2022
Only pdf files will be accepted. Submissions are not anonymous.
Submissions not meeting these guidelines risk rejection without
consideration of their merits. Authors of accepted papers must agree
with Springer LNCS copyright and guarantee that their papers will be
presented at the conference.
Review Process - Revised Submissions:
--------------------------------------
This year’s symposium will have two review cycles. Within 1.5 month of
submission, author notifications of Accept/Revise/Reject decisions will
be sent out. For each submission, one of the following decisions will be
made:
■ Accept: Papers in this category will be accepted for publication in
the proceedings and presentation at the conference, possibly after
making minor changes with the oversight of a shepherd.
■ Revise: A limited number of papers will be invited to submit a
revision; such papers are considered to be promising but need additional
work (e.g., new experiments, proofs, or implementations). Authors will
receive a specific set of expectations to be met by their revisions.
Authors can resubmit such papers, with appropriate revisions, to the
spring submission deadline. In revised submissions, the authors should
clearly explain in a well-marked appendix how the revisions address the
comments of the reviewers. The revised paper will then be re-evaluated,
and either accepted or rejected.
■ Reject: Papers in this category are declined for inclusion in the
conference. Papers rejected from the first review cycle may not be
submitted again (even in revised form) to the second review cycle. A
paper will be judged to be a resubmit (as opposed to a new submission)
if the paper is from the same or similar authors, and there is more than
40% overlap between the original submission and the new paper, it will
be considered a resubmission.
Topics of Interests:

Conflict of Interest (CoI):
----------------------------
The program co-chairs require cooperation from both authors and PC
members to prevent submissions from being evaluated by reviewers who
have a conflict of interest. In the one hand, during the bidding
procedure, PC members will be required to indicate potential CoIs. On
the other hand, authors will be asked during the submission process to
indicate any PC members with whom they share CoIs as well as the types
of CoIs. That is, if they and one the authors 1) share an institutional
affiliation at the time of submission; 2) had at any time in the past a
supervisor/PhD student relationship; 3) have collaborated or published
with in the prior two years; 4) are in some form of financial
relationship, or have been at some point during the past two years; or
5) are related, or have close personal friendships. For other forms of
conflict, authors must contact the chairs and explain the perceived
conflict.
Program committee members who have conflicts of interest with a paper,
including program co-chairs, will be excluded from discussing and
reviewing the submission. Authors also need to notify the PC Chairs of
any other reason or circumstance that creates a risk that professional
judgement may be unduly influenced.
The chairs reserve the right to request further explanation and can
remove non-mandatory conflicts at their discretion.
