Your report should be 8-10 pages in length, double-spaced, using font size 11 point. The report can be of one of the three forms:
1. a survey;
2. description of your design and implementation of a security approach (original ideas preferred);
3. your practical experience on a particular security topic.
In your report, be sure to summarize, rephrase instead of directly “copy” from other articles or web sources, be sure to include references whenever you cited some techniques/concepts from another article (otherwise, it is deemed as plagiarizing.)
Try to make your report organized; you can divide your articles into several sections such as overview, design and implementation, discussion, related work and conclusion.
Try to write in reasonable English, avoid typos and syntactic errors as much as you can. The following are a few good advices in terms of writing:

Rehearsals before the actual presentation can make you more relaxed and fluent. You will need to record your presentation, upload it to YouTube and submit a link of your video.
