Theme: 
Identity and Trust Infrastructures<o:p></o:p>

This
symposium brings together academia, government, and industry to explore all
aspects of identity and trust. Previously known as the PKI R&D Workshop
(2002-2007), our new name reflects interest in a broader set of tools and the
goal of an identity layer for the Internet. We aim to get practitioners in
different sectors together to apply the lessons of real-world deployments to
the latest research and ideas on the horizon. In addition to peer-reviewed
papers, we facilitate discussions among panels of invited experts and symposium
participants.<o:p></o:p>
