<h1>Toward a More Secure Web</h1>
<h1>W3C Workshop on Transparency and Usability of Web Authentication</h1>
<h3>15/16 March 2006 — New York City, USA</h3>
</div>
<h2>Background</h2>
<p>From the <a href="cfp">Call for Participation</a>: "This Workshop aims to
identify steps W3C can take to improve Web Security from the user-facing end
of the spectrum: Practical security online often fails because users can be
induced to make decisions that jeopardize their security and privacy, based
on a lack of working authentication of Web sites' identities (phishing). We
will look at technologies that can support Web users to better assess the
trustworthiness and identity of sites with which they deal."</p>
<h2>Current Status; Next Steps</h2>
<p>The <a href="cfp.html">Call for Participation</a> asked all interested
parties to submit position papers. 41 <a href="papers/">position papers</a>
were received and accepted. About 55 participants joined us in New York on
15/16 March. The pesentations shown are now linked from the <a
href="program">Workshop program</a> page.</p>
<p>A big "Thank You" to the program committee, to the speakers, and to all
participants who made this happen.</p>
<p>To keep the conversation going, a <a
href="http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-usable-authentication/">mailing
list</a> has been set up (<a
href="mailto:public-usable-authentication-request@w3.org?subject=subscribe">subscribe</a>).
We invite all participants to the workshop, and other interested parties, to
join the discussion there.</p>
<p>A <a href="report">workshop summary report</a> is now available.</p>
<h2>Sponsors</h2>
<p>The workshop was hosted in New York by Citigroup.</p>
<p>Networking infrastructure was provided by CISCO.</p>
