Security and Privacy Ideas That Matter
Enigma, the conference, is on pause. Enigma, the point of view, is here to stay. Read more about this decision in this blog post from the Enigma Steering Committee.
New in 2025: Enigma @ USENIX Security! Inspired by our previous Enigma conferences and invited talks tracks at USENIX Security, we're excited to launch Enigma @ USENIX Security. This new track complements the Symposium's traditional research papers and poster sessions with discussions on big ideas and their noteworthy intersections. While USENIX Security continues its legacy of uniting researchers, practitioners, and system specialists around cutting-edge security and privacy advances, Enigma introduces its signature focus on the broader implications of technology in society.
Below are some of their favorite Enigma talks. Thanks to USENIX's open access policy, all Enigma talk videos are available to watch on the conference program pages, linked below.
