AUTHORS’ GUIDANCE
eCrime has adopted the IEEE publication format. Submissions should be in
English, in PDF format with all fonts embedded, and formatted using the IEEE
conference template, which can be found at:
http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html.
Submissions should be anonymized, excluding author names, affiliations and
acknowledgments. Authors’ own work should be referred to in the third person.
Paper should not exceed 12 letter-sized pages, excluding the bibliography and
appendices.
Committee members are not required to read appendices, so ensure that the main
paper is intelligible without them.
Submitted papers that do not adhere to all the above guidelines may be rejected
without consideration of their merits.
Authors of accepted papers must present them and register at the event.
For paper submissions use the New Submission option at:
https://ecrime2023papers.hotcrp.com/
Authors will be asked to indicate whether they would like their submissions to
be considered for the Best Student Paper Award. Any paper co-authored by a
full-time student is eligible for this award.
Authors of accepted papers must guarantee that their paper will be presented at
the conference. We understand that some authors may face difficulties in
obtaining funding to attend the conference. Therefore, a limited number of
stipends are available for those who are unable to secure funding. Students who
will present their accepted papers themselves will be given priority in
receiving such assistance.
Submitted papers risk being rejected without consideration of their merits if
they do not follow all the above guidelines.
Submissions must not substantially duplicate work that was published elsewhere,
or work that any of the authors has submitted in parallel to any other
conference or workshop that has proceedings.
Accepted papers will be submitted for inclusion into IEEE Xplore subject to
meeting IEEE Xplore’s scope and quality requirements.
This year’s eCrime program marks 20 years since APWG’s founding. Originally
organized by a coalition of banks investigating, technology companies and US
federal police agencies, investigating the then new threat of phishing, APWG
has evolved into a global coalition of cybercrime experts spanning the globe
from a number of industries, research disciplines and public-sector entities,
from key nation states to global multilateral organizations.
