ISC2 said the new interactive sessions will let members discuss ethics, AI, standards, workforce readiness, public policy and national security.

ISC2 will add ACTion Rooms to its 2026 Security Congress, bringing facilitated discussions to the annual cybersecurity event in Denver.

ISC2 said the sessions are intended to give cybersecurity professionals a more direct way to shape the organization’s work on standards, ethics, artificial intelligence, workforce readiness, public policy and national security.

The 2026 ISC2 Security Congress is scheduled for Oct. 24-28 at the Gaylord Rockies in Denver, Colorado. ISC2 said the conference will include six ACTion Rooms, though it did not list the individual topics. The company said the sessions will use pulse checks, scenario prompts, guided reflection, member questions, live word clouds and closing takeaways.

ISC2 described itself in the release as the world’s leading nonprofit member organization for cybersecurity professionals and said it has more than 270,000 certified members and associates. The organization also said Security Congress has been hosted around the United States since 2011. The release said the new ACTion Rooms will be added alongside previously announced AI Incident Rooms.

CEO Scott Beale, CC, said the sessions are meant to give members a more direct path to contribute their expertise to ISC2’s work. He said the organization is working across standards, ethics, AI, workforce readiness, public policy and national security.

ISC2 also said Security Congress was recently named 2026 Cyber Security Community of the Year by Cyber Security Awards and won gold in the Conference category of the Titan Business Awards. Early Bird registration rates are available through Sept. 9, 2026.
