After
a good start in Moncton, Canada, where the 1st Joint IFIPTM conference took place in 2007, the second one will be held during midsummer in Trondheim, Norway, in June 2008. It will provide a truly global platform for the reporting of research, development, policy and practice in the interdependent areas of Privacy, Security, and Trust.
Following the traditions inherited from the highly successful iTrust and PST conference series, IFIPTM08 focuses on trust, privacy and security from multidisciplinary perspectives: economy, legal, psychology, philosophy, sociology and information technology. It will be an arena for discussion about relevant problems from both research and practice in the areas of academia, business, and government.
Extended Submission Deadline for Papers, Workshop and Tutorial Proposals: January 18, 2008
The IFIPTM 2008 conference will present a stimulating mix of keynote speakers, research papers, workshops, panel discussions and social events that facilitate:
• Meeting the global privacy, security and trust communities
• Promoting multi-disciplinary research
• Networking with fellow researchers and professionals
• Promoting collaboration between academe, industry and the public sector
• Posing important questions
• Defining technical, legal and social challenges
• Exposing and sharing current research
• Discussing the tools practitioners need researchers to develop
• Identifying the gaps and tackling the big issues - the exciting, deep challenges yet to be met in research
• Staying abreast of the global threats and risks in cyberspace
• International sharing and cooperation
It is expected that the conference will contain tracks on several aspects of trust management, privacy, security as well as mobile and emerging technologies. As such the IFIPTM 2008 conference will be of special interest to:
• Privacy, security and trust researchers and research administrators
• Decision makers in the private and public sectors
• Public and private sector policy makers

To make IFIPTM08 even more interesting, it will be aligned with the 5th European PKI Workshop taking place at the same location on June 16th - 17th. With public key applications, services, and infrastructures, this workshop features a field of research also highly relevant for many IFIPTM08 participants.
All-in-all, the 2nd Joint iTrust and PST Conference on Privacy, Trust Management and Security will feature an opportunity for interested parties to demonstrate their research and development projects. For more information, please contact the Program Chairs.
