In recent years, rapid advancements in Microelectronics, AI-embedded hardware, and edge/cloud computing applications have unlocked new opportunities for innovation across industries and academia. However, these innovations also introduce critical challenges in securing supply chains, Cyberinfrastructures, and information, while ensuring system resiliency, assurance, reliability, and trust.

The 2nd IEEE Conference on Secure and Trustworthy CyberInfrastructure for IoT and Microelectronics (SaTC 2026) provides a platform to address these growing concerns through both fundamental and applied research as well as workforce development efforts. With a focus on assured supply chain security, trusted microelectronics, and secure Internet of Things (IoT) and edge computing applications, the conference brings together experts to explore the latest advancements in security, trust, and assurance. The first edition of SaTC is organized at Sheraton North Houston at George Bush Intercontinental, Houston Texas, USA and will be held on March 24–26, 2026.

SATC will host global experts to discuss topics such as:

• Assured and Trusted Microelectronics (ATM)
• Secure IoT and Edge Computing Systems
• Trustworthy and Resilient Communication
• Embedded Computing Security
• Securing the computing infrastructures underpinning IoT/Edge systems
• Ensuring confidentiality, integrity, and availability across cloud and distributed environments
• Addressing emerging cyber-physical system threats
• Authentication and communication protocols
• Data security and privacy
• Trust and resilience in digital computing systems to withstand cyber threats

This event will serve as an interdisciplinary forum where leading researchers, engineers, and practitioners can exchange innovative solutions for securing hardware, software, and network layers, while ensuring system-wide trust and information security. SATC offers opportunities for in-depth discussions related to domains of this conference.

We invite you to submit your research, share your insights, and join the conversation as we collectively shape the future of secure and trusted IoT and edge computing. All accepted papers will undergo a rigorous peer-review process and, upon meeting the necessary quality and relevance standards, will be submitted for inclusion in IEEE Xplore. We look forward to your participation and the exciting discussions that will emerge at SATC. Together, we can advance the security, privacy, and assurance of the transformative technologies shaping the future.
