Call for Representative Experimentation Environments (REEs)

Are you a cybersecurity or privacy researcher with reusable, impactful artifacts? SPHERE is offering funded virtual internships ($5,000/month for up to three months) to port your work to our open research infrastructure!
Your research could reach a wider audience while advancing reproducibility in our field. Selected REEs will become part of a community-wide infrastructure designed to support nearly 90% of today’s cybersecurity and privacy research needs.
What’s a REE? It’s a research artifact that enables realistic experimentation in cybersecurity or privacy research—like code replicating network topologies, censorship detection tools, or privacy survey instruments.
Eligible REEs are open-source artifacts from published cybersecurity and privacy research that can reproduce original results and have demonstrated value through reuse by other researchers.
Deadline: April 15, 2025
Visit CALL FOR REES for complete details on eligibility, benefits, and how to apply.
We look forward to your submissions and to strengthening reproducible research in cybersecurity and privacy!
