Call For Papers

SACMAT 2026 (ACM Symposium on Access Control Models and Technologies) is a CCF C / CORE C / QUALIS A1 conference held in Waterloo, Canada on 2026-07-08. The paper submission deadline is 2026-03-02. Acceptance notifications are sent on 2026-04-06.

Access control has long been one of the most widely adopted and foundational security technologies. It has been seamlessly integrated into operating systems like Multics and Unix—pioneering platforms that contributed to Turing Award-winning innovations—and continues to underpin security in modern mobile devices and cloud computing. Its efficiency and effectiveness have stood the test of time. However, the landscape of computing has dramatically changed since the inception of the ACM Symposium on Access Control Models and Technologies (SACMAT) conference in 1994. We now operate in a deeply interconnected, networked world where no single application or device can act as a fully trusted reference monitor to enforce access control in isolation. This shift demands new trust models, management strategies, enforcement techniques, and supporting mechanisms, such as advanced authentication. In response, SACMAT invites researchers to explore and propose innovative, efficient, and effective security mechanisms designed for distributed, networked computing environments. Topics of Interest The 31st ACM Symposium on Access Control Models and Technologies (SACMAT) invites submissions presenting novel contributions in efficient and effective security mechanisms for distributed, networked computing environments. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: Authorization Models and Policies Analysis of Policy and Policy Models Policy Enforcement Policy Model and Language Design Policy Maintenance, Migration, and Mining Policy Verification Mechanisms AI/ML Techniques Authentication Cryptographic Techniques Economic Models and Game Theory Hardware Security Techniques (e.g., Intel SGX) Programming Language-based Techniques Zero Trust Architecture Data Big Data Confidential Computing Data Leakage Prevention Data Privacy Data Protection Usage Control Systems Cloud, Edge, and Fog Computing Cyber Physical Systems Design for Resiliency Distributed Systems Embedded Systems IoT Systems (e.g., Home Automation, Autonomous Vehicles) ML-driven, Autonomous Systems (e.g., AI chatbots) Networks (including Wireless and Satellite) Operating Systems Physical Access Control Web Systems Usability and Measurement Usable Access Control Systems User Studies for Access Control Measurement Studies of Access Control Usefulness, Failures, Effectiveness, or Impact
