Use when positioning a USENIX Security Symposium paper against prior work — covering the Big-Four security venues plus specialty conferences, handling concurrent submissions across the multi-cycle calendar, citing your own work double-blind, and using USENIX's open-access proceedings for verification.

# USENIX Security Related Work

Related work at USENIX Security is an adversarial exercise: the committee contains
people who wrote the nearest prior papers, and the multi-cycle Big-Four calendar
means the nearest prior paper may be four months old. This skill covers coverage,
differentiation, and the venue's citation mechanics.

## The coverage map reviewers apply

| Lane | Where it lives | The question your text must answer |
|---|---|---|
| Big-Four security | USENIX Security, IEEE S&P, ACM CCS, NDSS | Same problem, same class of technique — what's new here? |
| Specialty security | PETS, SOUPS, RAID, ACSAC, WOOT, DIMVA, ESORICS | Did the niche community already do this at smaller scale? |
| Adjacent systems/ML | OSDI/SOSP, SIGCOMM/IMC, NeurIPS/ICML | Is the "security" contribution a re-badged systems or ML result? |
