10th Symposium on Identity and Trust on the Internet (IDtrust 2011)
Theme: Near the Horizon, Just Over the Horizon
The 10th IDtrust Symposium, to be held April 6-7, 2011, is looking for poster submissions related to developing and implementing identity management solutions for trusted online transactions. As we use the term "identity" we mean more than primary identifiers, but rather include all digital records used in an access control decision. These are variously called identifiers, claims, attributes, permissions etc.
All software systems, from enterprise data centers to small businesses and consumer-facing applications, must make access control decisions for protected data. IDtrust is a venue for the discussion of the complete access control process (authentication, authorization, provisioning and security decision workflow), addressing questions such as:
- "What are the authorization strategies that will succeed in the next decade?"
- "What technologies exist to address complex requirements today?"
- "What research is academia and industry pursuing to solve the problems likely to show up in the next few years?"
The poster session will provide you with a great opportunity to gain exposure for your work, and discuss it with the symposium attendees. Posters will be available during the reception at NIST on the evening of April 6th, and you'll also receive free registration for the symposium.
Call for Posters
We solicit posters from researchers, systems architects, vendor engineers, and users. The area of identity is broad, and suggested topics may include, but are not limited to:- Analysis of existing identity management protocols and ceremonies (SAML, IMI, OpenID, OAuth, and PKI-related protocols)
- Analysis or extension of identity metasystems, trust frameworks, and systems like Shibboleth and Higgins
- Design and analysis of new access control protocols and ceremonies
- Cloud/grid computing implications on authorization and authentication
- Assembly of requirements for access control protocols and ceremonies involving strong identity establishment
- Reports of real-world experience with the use and deployment of identity and trust applications for broad use on the Internet (where the population of users is diverse) and within enterprises who use the Internet (where the population of users may be more limited)
- Lessons learned from legacy system integration with newly emerging solutions
- User-centric identity management, including delegation, reputation, revocation, and remediation
- Identity and Web 2.0, secure mash-ups, social networking, trust fabric and mechanisms of “invited networks”
- Identity management of devices from RFID tags to cell phones; Host Identity Protocol (HIP)
- Federated approaches to trust, including descriptions of existing federations as well as proposed models
- Standards related to identity and trust, such as X.509, S/MIME, PGP, SPKI/SDSI, XKMS, XACML, XRML, and XML signatures
- Intersection of policy-based systems, identity, and trust; identity and trust policy enforcement, policy and attribute mapping and standardization
- Attribute management, attribute-based access control
- Trust path building and certificate validation in open and closed environments
- Analysis and improvements to the usability of identity and trust systems for users and administrators, including usability design for authorization and policy management, naming, signing, verification, encryption, use of multiple private keys, and selective disclosure
- Identity and privacy, including real-world case studies and applicable research
- Levels of trust and assurance
- Trust infrastructure issues of scalability, performance, adoption, discovery, and interoperability
- Use of PKI in emerging technologies (e.g., sensor networks, disaggregated computers, etc.)
- Application domain requirements: web services, grid technologies, document signatures, (including signature validity over time), data privacy, etc.
NOTE: IDtrust 2011 will not have a peer-reviewed paper track.
