Scope & Topics

12^th International Conference on Cryptography and Information Security (CRIS 2026) serves as a premier platform for presenting cutting edge research and advances in cryptography, coding theory, and information security. As digital systems continue to expand in scale, complexity, and societal impact, the need for robust security foundations and innovative protection mechanisms has never been greater. CRIS 2026 provides a peer reviewed forum for researchers, practitioners, and industry experts to share breakthroughs, exchange ideas, and explore emerging challenges across the full spectrum of security and cryptographic technologies.

The conference aims to bring together scientists, researchers, engineers, and students from academia, industry, and government to discuss novel theories, methodologies, applications, and practical implementations. Authors are invited to submit original research articles, case studies, survey papers, and industrial experiences that demonstrate significant progress, innovative approaches, or insightful perspectives in the conference’s areas of interest.

The conference welcomes contributions in all relevant domains, including but not limited to the following:

Applied and theoretical cryptography

Cryptographic protocols, secure multiparty computation, and zero knowledge proofs

Post quantum cryptography and quantum resistant algorithms

Quantum cryptography and quantum safe key exchange

Blockchain security, consensus mechanisms, and cryptographic primitives for distributed ledgers

Privacy enhancing technologies (PETs), including differential privacy and homomorphic encryption

Secure key management, key exchange, and secret sharing

Authentication, authorization, and access control

Identity management, digital credentials, and decentralized identity
