UMBC hosts 2026 Security Standardisation Research Conference

To be held December 13-5 in Baltimore

UMBC will host the 2026 Security Standardisation Research Conference (SSR), which will be held December 13-15 in Baltimore and will include a co-located protocol analysis workshop. The conference will discuss and address research in existing standards, possible revisions to them, and the exploration of entirely new areas of standardization, such as post-quantum cryptography, fully homomorphic encryption, 6G wireless communication, and artificial intelligence. UMBC CSEE faculty Alan Sherman and Enis Golaszewski are the local organizers for SSR 2026.
