Bochum's IT security research is well represented at this year's "SOUPS - Symposium on Usable Privacy and Security" and the "USENIX Security Symposium". A total of 12 papers related to the Horst Görtz Institute for IT Security or the CASA Cluster of Excellence have been accepted at the conferences this year.

SOUPS is organised annually in combination with the Usenix Security Symposium and aims to "bring together an interdisciplinary group of researchers and practitioners in human-computer interaction, security and privacy."

The Usenix Security Symposium, which is highly regarded in the field, focuses particularly on the security and privacy of computer systems and networks and is aimed at researchers, practitioners, system administrators and system programmers.

The "Eighteenth Symposium on Usable Privacy and Security" will take place from 7-9 August and the "31st Usenix Security Symposium" from 10-12 August in Boston.
