# CCS Author Response

Use this after CCS reviews are released. Reopen the current HotCRP rebuttal instructions and
any length or format limits before drafting, because response mechanics are set per cycle.

## Triage

- Answer concerns that affect the decision: threat-model soundness, novelty, correctness,
  evidence quality, ethics, and disclosure. Skip cosmetic complaints unless space allows.
- Use evidence already in the submission: sections, appendices, measurement tables, and the
  ethics section. The rebuttal clarifies the submitted paper; it does not add a new paper.
- Keep the reply anonymous. Do not reveal institution, authorship, private URLs, or the
  identity of a disclosed vendor if that would deanonymize you.
- Correct factual misreadings first, then address the strongest objection to the attacker
