Conference Keynote Addresses

We are honored to have as a conference keynote speaker Dawn Song, a professor of Computer Science at the University of California, Berkeley. Prof. Song is an accomplished researcher and educator recognized for her innovative work in a number of security and privacy areas. She will discuss work that is addressing challenges such as how to build secure platforms for emerging computing models and how to protect user's privacy in an increasingly complex Web environment. Among Prof. Song's many honors, she was named a MacArthur Foundation Fellow for 2010, a very select and prestigious award, so it is a privilege to have a "genius award" winner speak at the conference.

Conference Program and Presentations

The detailed Conference Program is available here.

All presentations and posters will be made available at the conclusion of the conference.

Links to the conference presentations are provided below. PLEASE NOTE: Mosts presentations are provided in PowerPoint format for convenience. Providing PowerPoint files makes it very easy and tempting to "borrow" the material. However, these presentations are owned by the author so please do not use this material without permission from the author.

Conference Poster Session

The TRUST Conference will include sessions when posters of TRUST research are displayed. This is an opportunity for conference attendees to learn more about TRUST researh projects and talk one-on-one with TRUST researchers.
TRUST STUDENTS: If you are a TRUST student attending the conference, please plan on displaying a poster of your TRUST-related research and include your poster information when you register for the conference. A poster template in PowerPoint is available here. Prior to the conference, please print your poster in color on 40" W x 30" H paper and mount it on poster board if you wish (though this is not necessary). TRUST will provide poster board, easels, and clips for mounting and displaying your posters. It is up to you to print your own poster and get it to the conference. If you do not have the capability at your university to print in color and in a large format (e.g., on a plotter) your local copy shop or Kinko's should be able to do the job. If you have any questions regarding the posters, please contact Jessica Gamble, the TRUST Program Coordinator, and we will be glad to assist you.
