Since 1980, the IEEE Symposium on Security and Privacy has been the premier forum for presenting developments in computer security and electronic privacy, and for bringing together researchers and practitioners in the field. The 2019 Symposium will mark the 40th annual meeting of this flagship conference.
The Symposium will be held on May 20-22, 2019, and the Security and Privacy Workshops will be held on May 23, 2019. Both events will be in San Francisco, CA at the Hyatt Regency.
In cooperation with the Symposium, the GREPSEC Workshop will be held the prior weekend, May 18-19, 2019 in San Francisco. This pre-event workshop is for women and underrepresented groups interested in computer security research, and has a separate application and registration process, accessible through its website.
