Subject: PKI R&D Workshop -
CFP Deadline Fast Approaching
6th Annual PKI R&D
Workshop: "Applications-Driven PKI (It's The Apps, Stupid!)"
CALL FOR PAPERS
Deadlines for conference paper and panel submissions are:
Papers and Proposals Due: October 22,
2006
Authors Notified: December 18, 2006
Final Materials Due: February 26, 2007
This workshop considers the full range of public key technology used for
security decisions and supporting functionalities, including authentication,
authorization, identity management, federation, and trust. This year's focus is
striking the proper balance to permit users to complete tasks requiring
security easily while exposing the appropriate security details through all
layers of software. This workshop has three goals:
1. Explore the current state of public key technology and emerging trust
mechanisms in different domains, including web services, grid technologies,
encryption functionality, authentication systems, etc., in academia, research,
government, and industry.
2. Share and discuss lessons learned and scenarios encountered from vendors and
practitioners from current deployments.
3. Provide a forum for leading security researchers to explore the issues
relevant to PKI in relation to applications, usability, security management,
identity, trust, policy, authentication, authorization and encryption (e.g.,
supporting privacy requirements).
