Workshop Overview

The Learning from Authoritative Security Experiment Results (LASER) workshop series focuses on learning from and improving cybersecurity experiment results. The workshop strives to provide a highly interactive, collegial environment for discussing and learning from experimental methodologies, execution, and results. Ultimately, the workshop seeks to foster a dramatic change in the experimental paradigm for cybersecurity research, improving the overall quality and reporting of practiced science.

Each year, the LASER committee chooses a slightly different focus and approach to help the community reach the overall goals of the effort.

This year, the LASER workshop invites participation by authors of accepted ACSAC papers to come together to explore and discuss the experimental aspects of their work. Conference papers all too often must focus on research results and contain limited discussion of the experimental aspects of the work. LASER will provide authors the opportunity to lead focused discussion on the experimental approaches and methodologies used to obtain their results.
