ARES

The 21st International Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security (ARES 2026), held in Linköping, Sweden.

Workshop on Advances in Secure Software Deployments (ASOD), held in conjunction with the 21st International Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security (ARES 2026). Securely deploying software applications and systems onto diverse production environments is a constantly evolving landscape. The workshop covers deployment approaches to diverse environments such as IoT, cloud, edge devices, embedded devices, enterprise installations, industrial control systems; automating security requirements validation; secure deployable artifacts like containers and VMs; post-deployment sustainment and monitoring; continuous secure deployments; deployments in insecure, air gapped, and highly regulated environments; secure CI/CD design; AI driven deployment practices; DevSecOps; deployment rollbacks, updates and patching; and secure deployment strategies and methodologies.

PQ-ReadySec 2026 is an international workshop held in conjunction with the 21st International Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security (ARES). It provides a focused international forum on the practical, operational, and strategic aspects of post-quantum cybersecurity readiness and migration, emphasizing a layered Quantum-Safe Stack combining crypto-agility, infrastructure resilience, secure system migration, organizational readiness, and compliance practices. The workshop encourages interdisciplinary contributions spanning cryptography, cybersecurity engineering, AI-assisted security operations, risk management, and regulatory perspectives.

The 21st International Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security (ARES 2026) will be held in Linköping, Sweden, from August 24-27, 2026. Co-located with ARES 2026 is the SAFER Workshop on Sustainable Security And Awareness For Next Generation Infrastructures, which brings together interdisciplinary researchers and practitioners to discuss challenges and solutions that move beyond purely technological security approaches, covering topics such as green IT, environmental impact of AI/ML, fairness, inclusivity, data governance, privacy, and cyber risk management.

The 21st International Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security (ARES 2026), will be held August 24 – 27, 2026 in Linköping, Sweden.
