Assurance in Life/Nation Critical Endeavors A Panel

摘要

Our thesis is that biometric and other intertwined technologies will be used to supplement the work of people in the security field. When these technologies are used, we fear that a high degree of misinterpretation and error is likely. Because of this, we need to identify the technical measures required for these systems. This thesis, along with a justification, and proof sketch, was given to the panelists. Five areas of the technology life-cycle were investigated: modeling, implementation, interpretation of results, database protection, and social issues. The format was simple. After the introduction, each panelist gave a brief presentation. Afterwards the workshop participated in a highly interactive and collegial way, with the panel chair keeping things orderly. A lively discussion resulted, with many good comments and questions from the NSPW attendees, some of which we report.
