Review Process

The Call For Papers (CFP) submission undergoes a comprehensive review process conducted by an independent panel of seven CFP Review Board members. These distinguished individuals, possessing diverse expertise and experience in the field of information security, dedicate their time and knowledge to assess and score each submission thoroughly.

The review panel members meticulously evaluate the submissions based on predefined criteria, considering factors such as originality, relevance, technical depth, clarity, and contribution to the field. Each submission is anonymously reviewed to ensure impartiality and fairness in the assessment process.

Upon completion of the individual assessments, the panel members assign scores to the submissions. These scores are then consolidated and deliberated upon in an internal evaluation session.
