PST2010 Conference Overview
(Who What Where When Why)
What is the Annual Conference on Privacy, Security and Trust?
PST2010 is the eighth annual conference on Privacy, Security and Trust (PST). PST2010 provides a forum for researchers world-wide to unveil their latest work in privacy, security and trust and to show how this research can be used to enable innovation. PST2010 is hosted and organized by the University of New Brunswick (UNB) and the University of Ottawa (UO) in cooperation with the National Research Council of Canada Institute for Information Technology (NRC-IIT).

The conference co-chairs are
Ann Cavoukian
(Information and Privacy Commissioner of Ontario, Canada)
and
Ali Miri
(University of Ottawa, Canada and Ryerson University, Canada).
The honorary Conference Chair
is
Michael Geist
(University of Ottawa, Canada).

PST2010 is being held in cooperation with IEEE Technical Committee on Security and Privacy. High quality academic papers are selected through a competitive double blind review process and published in the conference proceedings.

Where and When is PST2010 Being Held?

The conference will take place August 17-19, 2010, on the UO campus in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. PST2010 will include workshops, tutorials, panel discussions, keynote speakers, research papers, a poster show, and a networking reception, as well as an awards banquet.
PST2010 has two major components: a one-day symposium (Innovation Day, August 17) and the PST Research Conference (August 18-19). Attendees can register for one day (Innovation Day) or for the full three-day event which includes Innovation Day. 

What is Innovation Day at PST2010?

Innovation Day (August 17) will feature keynotes addresses, invited talks, and panel discussions related to this year’s Innovation Day theme “Collaborating to Solve the Hard ICT Problems in Public Safety and Security”. This symposium will bring the local business community (including small, medium, and large size firms) together with regional, national, and international representatives of the public sector, private sector, academia, and the research community to jointly explore how information and communications technology (ICT) can be used make both cyberspace and the real world safe and secure.

What is this Year’s Conference Theme?

This year’s conference theme is “Privacy, Security and Trust by Design: PbD - The Gold Standard.”  With the growth and ubiquity of data in today’s hyper-networked world, the need for trust has become more critical than ever. We need new paradigms that seek to integrate and build privacy, security and trustworthiness directly into technologies and systems from the outset and by default. 
In addition PST2010 will feature papers and presentations in three major program tracks:

  • Privacy (program chair: Khaled El Emam, University of Ottawa, Canada)
  • Security (program chair: Issa Traore,University of Victoria, Canada)
  • Trust (program chair: Steve Marsh,Communications ResearchCanada)

Who Will Attend?
PST2010 is a combined business and research conference attracting a multidisciplinary audience of researchers, corporate and government executives, recognized academics and student leaders. Attendees come together to present, discuss and review the latest issues, trends, challenges and opportunities related to privacy, security, and trust and the impact of this research on the economy. Not only will PST2010 attract a wide scope of delegates geographically, but it will also draw attendees from a variety of professional backgrounds.
