La International Federation for Information Processing, in sigla IFIP, è una organizzazione federativa che raggruppa le società nazionali che operano nell'area della tecnologia dell'informazione. Si tratta di un organismo non governativo, senza fini di lucro con uffici in Austria. Sono suoi membri più di 48 associazioni nazionali e accademie scientifiche.
L'IFIP è stata costituita nel 1960 sotto gli auspici dell'UNESCO, con il nome iniziale di International Federation of Information Processing Societies, in acronimo IFIPS. Il nome e l'acronimo odierni sono stati adottati nel 1961.
Le attività dell'IFIP sono imperniate sui suoi quattordici Technical Committees, a loro volta divisi in working groups. I gruppi di lavoro organizzano conferenze, gestiscono incontri di lavoro e pubblicano documenti tecnici.
