All submissions will be reviewed by the conference’s program committee, composed of experts in the field. The review process will assess the submissions’ relevance, originality, technical quality, applicability, and clarity. If necessary, mentorship opportunities will be offered to help elevate promising submissions.
All presenters must register for the conference. Registration details, including fees and deadlines, will be available on the conference website. Authors whose submissions are selected will receive complimentary access to the Conference.
The Program Committee will be the final decider of acceptance or not. Feedback to submissions not accepted will be given on a case-by-case basis, upon request by the author, at the discretion of the Committee. The number of speaking slots is very limited so we will be looking for complete high-quality submissions within the guidelines provided above.

We look forward to receiving your contributions and meeting you at the Threat Modeling Con 2023!
