The Security & Privacy Group will be hiring multiple fully-funded Master's and PhD students next year. For more information about funding: cs.ubc.ca/students/grad/… To apply: cs.ubc.ca/students/grad/… Explore our latest publications: spg.cs.ubc.ca/publication/

This seems to be a recurring story at the start of this academic year. It seems to target a few countries, more transparency would be welcome to advise students.

I am pleased to announce that our paper, which attempts to reproduce provenance-based intrusion detection, has been accepted at ACM REP 2025. This is a collaboration spearheaded by Ashish Gehani from SRI! Paper: tfjmp.org/publications/2…

The ACM REP main conference events will be starting today with a keynote from Margo Seltzer from UBC Computer Science Thanks to UBC Science and UBC Computer Science for sponsoring the event!

Our paper is being presented today at ACM REP (acm-rep.github.io/2025/). You can the pre-print online here: tfjmp.org/publications/2…

It was a pleasure to chair the ACM Conference on Reproducibility and Replicability. Thanks to all the authors, attendees, committee members and our sponsors UBC Computer Science and UBC Science who all made this event possible. A special shouthout to the best paper awardees from UF Computer & Information Science & Engineering!

From internet censorship to intrusion detection systems to cryptographic algorithms, UBC Computer Science researchers had several papers accepted at the USENIX Security Symposium 2025! Read more about their work in our new article: ow.ly/uhxh50WFmaQ

Four papers and multiple posters from the Security and Privacy Group (𝓟𝓱𝓸𝓷𝓰 Thomas Pasquier and me) UBC Computer Science at #usesec25. Come chat with us if you are at the conference. cs.ubc.ca/news/2025/08/f… spg.cs.ubc.ca Systopia Lab

Our two papers are being presented today at USENIX Security. Paper 1: usenix.org/conference/use… Paper 2: usenix.org/conference/use… A big thanks to the two fantastic graduate students Baoxiang and Tristan who are presenting!

As the field of computer science expands, researchers are publishing more and more scientific papers. With increasing numbers of studies, scientists must ensure that their results are validated and that the knowledge they generate is true.

Congratulations to our undergraduate researchers on their successful summer projects!

I’m recruiting funded PhD students to work on intrusion detection at the intersection of machine learning, systems, and security. Deadline is Dec 15. Learn about our group at UBC: spg.cs.ubc.ca Some information about the application process: tfjmp.org/#phd

Interested in joining my group as a visiting PhD student? Working on a topic closely related to my research, reach out! Details on visiting UBC: goglobal.ubc.ca/go-global/comi…

Huge thanks to our PhD students for their fantastic research presentations to UBC Computer Science students in CPSC 313. Great job everyone!
