With the rapid advancement of communication technologies and the continuously evolving cybersecurity landscape, computer communication and network security have become indispensable pillars of the modern information society. In recent years, emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, edge computing, quantum communication, optical fiber sensing, and nano-photonic devices have brought new opportunities to enhance the security, reliability, and intelligence of communication networks, and have consequently attracted growing attention from both academia and industry.
The 7th International Conference on Computer Communication and Network Security (CCNS 2026) will be held in Huaihua, China, from October 16 to 18, 2026. The conference aims to provide a high-level platform for researchers, scholars, engineers, and industry professionals worldwide to exchange ideas, present the latest research findings, and deliberate on key challenges and future directions in the field. CCNS 2026 covers a broad range of topics, including but not limited to artificial intelligence and machine learning, security challenges in edge computing, quantum communication networks, optical fiber sensor networks for security applications, and nano-photonic devices in cybersecurity. The conference seeks to foster academic exchange, technological innovation, and interdisciplinary collaboration across these cutting-edge fields.
