  AI is reshaping the cybersecurity landscape, empowering attackers and
  defenders alike, while regulators implement an evolving legal framework
  governing its development and deployment (data protection law, the EU AI
  Act, cybersecurity regulation, and criminal law provisions). PALS aims to
  bridge the gap between technical research and legal frameworks by bringing
  together researchers from computer science and law to address privacy,
  AI, and security as interdependent dimensions of the same challenge. The
  workshop especially welcomes interdisciplinary contributions co-authored
  by technical and legal researchers.

  Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
    - Detection of disinformation, hate speech and toxic content
    - Content moderation and freedom of expression
    - Legal responsibility for AI-generated content
    - Explainable AI for cybersecurity and legal transparency requirements
    - Regulatory sandboxes as tools for developing trustworthy AI
    - GDPR compliance of AI systems and LLMs
    - Mobile security and privacy compliance
    - Mobile security and users' rights
    - Legal and privacy implications of mobile security
    - Protection of minors and age assurance online
    - Reliability and admissibility of digital evidence in criminal
      proceedings
    - AI in criminal investigations and judicial proceedings
    - Cybercrime and cross-border jurisdiction
