ACM CCS 2026 — 33rd ACM SIGSAC Conference on Computer and Communications Security
by ACM SIGSAC
Top-tier security research conference with an ML-security track and agentic-AI security workshops — The Hague, Nov 15-19, 2026
About This Event
ACM CCS 2026, the 33rd ACM SIGSAC Conference on Computer and Communications Security, takes place at the World Forum in The Hague, Netherlands, on November 15-19, 2026, hosted by TU Delft and the University of Turku. CCS is one of the flagship peer-reviewed venues in computer security; papers were reviewed in two submission cycles across ten tracks, including a dedicated Security and Privacy of Machine Learning track for attacks on and defences of ML systems. The main conference is bracketed by 16 co-located workshops on November 15 and 19, among them AISec (the 19th ACM Workshop on Artificial Intelligence and Security), AGENT-SEC on securing agentic AI systems, LAMPS on the privacy and safety of large AI models, and 3D-Sec on deepfakes and disinformation.

- ✓CISOs and security leaders
- ✓AI security and red-team leads
- ✓Security researchers
- ✓ML engineers building LLM and agent systems
- ✓Privacy and cryptography engineers
- ✓PhD students and academics
Why Attend
CISOs and AI platform leaders deploying LLMs and agents get the attack research here long before it reaches vendor threat reports: the ML security track, AISec, AGENT-SEC and LAMPS are where prompt-injection, model-extraction, red-teaming and agent-containment results are first published and argued over by the people who found them. It is a research conference, so expect papers rather than product pitches; send the security architects who will turn those findings into controls. A non-member full package is €1,800 early.

What Makes This Unique
- ★One of the flagship peer-reviewed computer security conferences, run by ACM SIGSAC
- ★A dedicated Security and Privacy of Machine Learning review track, kept distinct from papers that merely apply ML to security problems
- ★Five AI-focused co-located workshops in 2026: AISec, AGENT-SEC, LAMPS, 3D-Sec and TrustAICyberSec
- ★Two-cycle peer review with rebuttal periods — results are refereed research, not vendor-curated content
