Overview
--------

The Spring 2021 offering of the Software & Systems Security Seminar will
cover a variety of security topics, with an eye toward two goals.

- Increase participants' familiarity with recent and important
  results in the areas of software and systems security research.
  Attendees will read and discuss papers from **recent and imminent
  top-tier security conferences**:
  e.g., IEEE S&P, USENIX Security, CCS, NDSS, and
  security-related systems and software engineering conferences,
  and so on.
  Attendees will typically discuss one paper each week.
  Papers will be selected for their relevance to participants' research
  or upcoming UTD visitors.
- Be a venue for **student presentations**.
  Every student participating in the seminar will be required to lead
  at least one meeting during the semester.
  This may be a "formal" research presentation--ideally of a student's
  current work--or it may be an analysis of the research papers chosen
  for a seminar meeting.
