The Keynote Speech will be given by Dr Carlise Adams, and is entitled

thoughts on why PKI has been available as an authentication technology

limited contexts to date. He will also present his thoughts on the
possible future(s) of this technology, with emphasis on the major
factors hindering adoption and some potential directions for future
research in these areas.
The Programme will have sessions on: authorization, risks/attacks to PKI
systems, interoperability between systems, evaluating a CA, ID ring
based signatures, new protocols, practical implementations and long term
archiving.
