Next workshop on NSTIC is at IIW in October in Mountain View, CA
Previously, NSTIC had contemplated hosting a third workshop focused on technologies and standards relevant to NSTIC in Silicon Valley in September. They've considered a number of options for the workshop – and have opted to forgo a formal NIST workshop this fall in favor of playing an active role at the upcoming Internet Identity Workshop (IIW) October 18-20 at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, CA.
IIW has designated the second day of the event – October 19 – as “NSTIC Day” and the NSTIC office intends to propose a handful of NSTIC-related topics for that day in advance of the event. Note that NSTIC discussions will not be limited to the 19th, and we expect NSTIC to be a topic of discussion throughout the workshop; the 19th is simply where our NSTIC efforts will be focused. More details are available at IIW . The registration site is IIW13 registration
