| PKI is Getting re-Discovered |
| |
Brian O'Higgins, Entrust |
| Governments will be the leading sector in PKI deployments
for the next year at least. This is both for internal use driven in particular
by homeland security related applications, as well as externally in e-gov applications.
The higher standard of security required by governments distinguishes these designs
over some commercial projects. This talk will look at how PKI technology is being
adopted by governments, and the impact on our industry. |

9:30 am
|
| Delivering the Promise of PKI |
| |
John Weigelt, Government of Canada |
| While pundits have described PKI as faltering, the
Government of Canada is demonstrating that the last rites shouldn't be read just
yet. This presentation will illustrate how PKI is being employed to reach all
individuals and businesses that deal with the Government of Canada. This presentation
will outline the innovative deployment strategy used for authentication services,
discuss the challenges as well as solutions employed to deliver the authentication
services that form the foundation for many government on-line applications. A
live demonstration of the authentication system in action will illustrate the
manner in which the authentication services have been deployed to the user. |

| The interoperability between NPKI(National PKI)
and GPKI(Government PKI) in KOREA |
| |
Bo-Sung Hwang, KISA |
| To assure the security and trust of electronic documents
and to promote use of electronic documents, Korea has prepared basic requirements
for digital signature and NPKI(national PKI) construction. The Digital Signature
Act has been enacted in Feb. 1999 and put into force since July 1999 to advance
the nation into an information society and to improve convenience for the public.
NPKI has been built and operated by the Korea Certificate Authority Central (KCAC)
in Korea Information Security Agency (KISA), in accordance with the enforcement
of the Digital Signature Act. Currently, 6 licensed CAs and many non-licensed
CAs are being operated for the wired certification services. |

| A survey of Japanese PKI Market: Major Business
Cases & Applications |
| |
Dr. Naoto Kamouchi, PKI Forum Japan |
| The Japan PKI Forum has surveyed recent PKI business
cases and applications in Japan and surrounding countries. They have categorized
the PKI market into some PKI based service fields, for example e-government, B2B
EC, financial field, etc., and interviewed some companies and organizations in
the fields. This presentation will discuss their findings. |

| U.S. Federal PKI: Latest Developments in Implementation |

Judith Spencer, USA DoD |

the next steps being undertaken in this area. |

| "Authenticating Devices", |
| |
Derek Brink, RSA Security |
| As the hype cycle for "PKI" has settled
down, the average person may not be aware of the many ways in which digital certificates
are already being used. This presentation highlights some of these under-the-covers
uses, and projects the future use of digital certificates for network authentication
in a wide range of high-volume devices. |
