We are excited to announce the 1st workshop on Human-Centered AI Privacy and Security (HAIPS, pronounced "hypes"), co-located with ACM CCS 2025!

Call for Submissions

Recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) create and exacerbate new security, privacy, and safety risks, from inferring personal attributes, generating non-consensual intimate imagery, to voice cloning, to spear phishing. At the same time, AI can afford new opportunities to address long standing end-user security and privacy challenges. We welcome participants who work on topics related to AI/ML security and privacy from human-centered perspectives. Interested participants will be asked to contribute a paper to the workshop.

Topics of Interest

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Human-centered evaluation of privacy, security, and safety vulnerabilities in emerging AI technologies
Users' mental models, behaviors, and preferences about privacy, security, and safety in AI systems
Usable security mechanisms and privacy-enhancing technologies in AI systems
Novel applications of AI for human-centered privacy, security, and safety management, education, and design
Security, privacy, safety, and human autonomy in agentic AI systems
Security, privacy, and safety risks and mitigation related to AI practitioners
Human-centered evaluation and analysis of laws and policies in reaction to emerging privacy, security, and safety threats caused by AI
Societal impact of AI on privacy, security, safety and its tensions with other requirements (e.g., fairness)
Position papers outlining a novel research agenda for human-centered privacy, security, and safety in the context of AI

We welcome submissions with the following three types of contributions:

Original papers on new techniques and empirical studies;
Systematization-of-knowledge papers;
Position papers.

Submission Types and Format

We welcome two types of submissions: (1) Papers and (2) Posters. The first type is archival, meaning that accepted submissions will be published in the ACM Digital Library. The second type is non-archival and includes encore submissions featuring recently published research. The authors can specify the type in the submission form.

Papers

At most 10 pages in the ACM double-column format (sigconf in the ACM template*), excluding references and appendices. Note that we also welcome shorter work-in-progress papers (similar to CHI Late-Breaking Work) that can benefit from early feedback opportunities while still retaining the potential to develop into full publications in the future.

Note for LaTeX users: Please use \documentclass[sigconf,anonymous]{acmart} for submission. For the camera ready version, please use \documentclass[sigconf]{acmart}.

Accepted papers will be published in the ACM Digital Library.

Posters

Poster submissions are intended for encore presentations of research published in 2023 or later. The submission should include a poster draft and a one-page single-column document with the following information: Full bibliographic reference (title, authors, date, venue, etc.) to the paper, Abstract of the original paper, and Link/DOI to the published paper

Review Process

Paper submissions will undergo a double-blind review process. Selections will be based on the quality of the submission and diversity of perspectives to foster meaningful knowledge exchange among a broad range of stakeholders.

Poster submissions will undergo a single-blind review process. Selections will be based on the quality of the poster draft, relevance of the topic, and diversity of perspectives to foster meaningful knowledge exchange among a broad range of stakeholders.
