Dartmouth Team Wins $1.6 Million Mellon Grant for PKI Research

"The grant will enable Dartmouth's Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) team to develop applications that may revolutionize the way colleges and universities conduct academic business. Public keys are a method of cyber-encryption often used by the e-commerce industry. Dartmouth's team, led by Assistant Professor of Computer Science Sean Smith, will develop more secure and effective systems for university-based PKI. It will be designed to make it easier to identify and authorize people who want to use network resources."
