Keynote: “Well, It Worked on My Computer”: On Reproducibility in Security Research

Computer Security is a critical area of research. As such, the artifacts within Computer Security should accelerate the pace of progress in the community. However, nearly every researcher has expressed difficulty in comparing their work against prior work. In this talk, I will discuss our lab’s work in assessing the state of reproducibility and the avenues for better reproducibility within the Computer Security community.
