Building on the success of ACM Conference on Computer and Communications Security (CCS) and ACM Transactions on Information and System Security (TISSEC), the ACM Special Interest Group on Security, Audit, and Control (SIGSAC) formally established the annual ACM Symposium on InformAtion, Computer and Communications Security (ASIACCS). The inaugural ASIACCS was held in Taipei (2006). Since then ASIACCS has been held in Singapore (2007), Tokyo (2008), Sydney (2009), Beijing (2010), Hong Kong (2011), Seoul (2012), Hangzhou (2013), Kyoto (2014), and Singapore (2015).

Considering that this series of meetings has moved beyond a symposium and it is now widely regarded as the Asia version of CCS, the full name of ASIACCS is officially changed to ACM Asia Conference on Computer and Communications Security starting in June 2015. The 11th ACM Asia Conference on Computer and Communications Security (ASIACCS 2016) will be held in May 30 - June 3, 2016 in Xi'an, China.
