CSRankings

We are proud that the strong presence of TU Wien Informatics and CySec faculty at leading international conferences in computer security, cryptography, and logic & verification has resulted in TU Wien being ranked 5th in Europe and 19th worldwide in CSRankings 2024–2025. This success reflects the excellence of our faculty, the supportive environment of Technische Universität Wien, and the strength of the Austrian research funding ecosystem, including the Vienna Science and Technology Fund (WWTF), the Austrian Science Fund (FWF), the Austrian Research Promotion Agency (FFG), the City of Vienna, the Federal Ministry of Education, and the Federal Ministry for Climate Action, Environment, Energy, Mobility, Innovation and Technology.

For computer security, CSRankings considers the flagship conferences ACM SIGSAC CCS, the IEEE Symposium on Security and Privacy (“Oakland”), and the USENIX Security Symposium. At these venues, TU Wien is represented by publications from Matteo Maffei (3 papers), Martina Lindorfer (2), and Zeta Avarikioti and Laura Kovács (1 each). In logic and verification, the relevant venues include CAV and LICS (associated with ACM SIGLOG), with contributions from Ezio Bartocci (2 papers) and from Maria Christakis, Katalin Fazekas, Matteo Maffei, Georg Weissenbacher, and Laura Kovács (1 paper each). In cryptography, CSRankings is based primarily on the IACR flagship conferences CRYPTO and EUROCRYPT, where TU Wien is represented by Georg Fuchsbauer (3 papers) and by Dominique Schröder and Elena Andreeva (1 paper each).
