Essendo l'universita' un luogo pubblico, vi segnalo (pubblicamente) un 
seminario che ci sara' mercoledi' prossimo alla facolta' di Scienze a Trento.
Non pensate che sia ironico a sottolineare un seminario che parla di
sicurezza tenuto da uno di M$ (sembra ridicolo, lo so ;-), perche' in
realta' il professore in questione lavora per "M$ Research", che e' abbastanza
differente da M$ azienda (anche se ne e' una sua parte).

Sicuramente sara' un seminario teorico; non penso che si parlera' di prodotti.

Ciao

                                                Emanuele

P.S.: se ci fossero variazioni sull'orario vi avviso.

ICT DEPARTMENT SEMINAR SERIES

TITLE: Why security is difficult - why security is different

SPEAKER: Prof. Dieter Gollmann
                  (Microsoft Research Europe)

DATE: Wed. 10 April 2002 - 14:30-15:30
PLACE: Aula Seminari di Matematica, Dipartimento di Informatica e 
Telecomunicazioni,  via Sommarive 14, POVO (Trento)

ABSTRACT:
Security research has its roots in the early days of the computing 
industry. However, we find that security poses one of the major challenges 
to software engineering today, so we could treat security still as an 
'unsolved' problem. In this talk, I will discuss general causes of problems 
related to security and point to aspects where security is different from 
other areas of software engineering in an attempt to explain today's 
security situation.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER:
Dieter Gollmann is leader of the Computer Security group at Microsoft 
Research and editor-in-chief of the International Journal on Information 
Security. Before joining Microsoft, he received his Dipl.-Ing. in 
Engineering Mathematics and Dr. techn. (1984) from the University of Linz, 
Austria, where he was a research assistant in the Department for System 
Science. He then joined Royal Holloway College (University of London) as a 
Lecturer in Computer Science, moved on to the University of Karlsruhe, 
where he was awarded the venia legendi for computer science in 1991, and 
returned to Royal Holloway where he was promoted to a readership in 1992 
and to Professor of Computer Science in 1997. He was Visiting Professor at 
the Technical University of Graz in 1991 and Adjunct Professor at the 
Information Security Research Centre, QUT, Brisbane, in 1995. His research 
interests in Information Security include finite field theory, design and 
analysis of cryptographic protocols, and the design of secure systems.
