ACM CCS 2027 — 34th ACM SIGSAC Conference on Computer and Communications Security
by ACM SIGSAC (Special Interest Group on Security, Audit and Control)
ACM's flagship annual conference on computer and communications security and privacy
About This Event
ACM CCS 2027, the ACM SIGSAC Conference on Computer and Communications Security, takes place October 11-15, 2027 in Atlanta, USA. It is ACM's flagship security conference and one of the four top-tier academic security venues. The official 2027 site describes a week-long event with a main conference, workshops, keynotes, posters and demos, bringing together researchers and practitioners from academia, industry and government. The most recent call for papers organised submissions into research areas including software security, web and network security, usable security and measurement, security and privacy of machine learning, formal methods, hardware and side channels and cyber-physical systems, applied cryptography, blockchain and distributed systems, and privacy and anonymity. Papers are reviewed in two cycles per year and at least one author of each accepted paper must present in person. The 2027 edition moves the conference from The Hague back to North America.

Topics & Focus Areas
Who Should Attend
- ✓CISOs and security leaders
- ✓Security researchers and applied cryptographers
- ✓AI/ML security and red-team engineers
- ✓Privacy engineers and data-protection officers
- ✓Security product and platform architects
- ✓PhD students and academic faculty in security
Why Attend
For a CISO or security architect deploying AI, CCS is where attacks on machine-learning systems — data poisoning, model extraction, privacy leakage, LLM jailbreaks — are published first, typically months before they appear in vendor threat reports. Attending lets security leaders separate real AI risk from marketing, recruit from the strongest security PhD pipeline in the field, meet the researchers whose work later becomes detection products, and leave with a concrete view of where defences for their AI, cryptography and supply-chain stacks are heading.
Event Features
- ✓Research area: Security and Privacy of Machine Learning
- ✓Research area: Software Security
- ✓Research area: Applied Cryptography
- ✓Research area: Hardware, Side Channels, and Cyber-Physical Systems
- ✓Research area: Privacy and Anonymity
- ✓Co-located workshops, posters and demos
What Makes This Unique
- ★ACM's flagship security conference and one of the 'big four' academic security venues — peer-reviewed research, not vendor sessions
- ★Security and privacy of machine learning is a dedicated research area, so adversarial ML, model extraction and LLM attack research appears here before it reaches products
- ★Week-long format combining the main conference with co-located workshops, posters and demos across academia, industry and government
- ★Two submission cycles per year, with an in-person presentation requirement for every accepted paper
