IEEE SoutheastCon 2026

IEEE SoutheastCon 2026 is a major regional conference organized by IEEE Region 3, bringing together engineers, researchers, faculty, and students from across the southeastern United States and beyond. While the conference spans a wide range of engineering and scientific disciplines, cybersecurity plays a clear and defined role within its technical program through dedicated coverage of computer security and privacy. This makes the event relevant for cybersecurity professionals working at the intersection of computing systems, networking, and secure software design.

The technical program encourages original research and applied work, including topics such as cybersecurity, secure computing architectures, networking, AI driven systems, and privacy focused technologies. Through peer reviewed papers, tutorials, and technical sessions, attendees gain exposure to emerging threats, secure system design practices, and evolving security challenges within broader engineering environments. This multidisciplinary setting allows cybersecurity topics to be discussed in context with real world systems and infrastructure.
