Contract value is $4-6m. -- Andre [Forwarded from RISKS DIGEST 21.72] Date: Thu, 25 Oct 2001 14:56:01 -0400 From: "Landwehr, Carl E." Subject: NSF Trusted Computing program [Carl Landwehr, erstwhile security guru at the U.S. Naval Research Lab and more recently at Mitretek, is now on a one-year leave at the National Science Foundation, as Director of the Trusted Computing program. NSF is a good source of funding, and this procurement should be of interest to many RISKS readers. As always, I recommend that we focus on developing TRUSTWORTHY systems, not just UNTRUSTWORTHY systems that have to be TRUSTED because we have no alternative. PGN] The initial announcement for the new Trusted Computing program is at: http://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2001/nsf01160/nsf01160.html The deadline for proposals is 5 Dec 2001; if you are in a position to conduct research in this area, I encourage you to consider submitting a proposal. NSF focuses on funding research at universities and not-for-profit organizations. I also hope you will consider helping me staff the review panels for the proposals that are submitted. My new contact information is provided below; please use this e-mail address for future correspondence. Carl E.
