The last session of the ICT Mobile Summit held from 9 - 12 June 2008 in Stockholm featured privacy issues related with Identity Management and the network. The title of the session was Pervasive and Trusted Networks Issues and was chaired by Amardeo Sarma from NEC Network Laboratories in Heidelberg, Germany. Three talks related to Identity Management and two related to privacy and anonymity in networks. This reflected the overall concern over privacy and trust in the Future Internet that permeated much of the ICT Mobile Summit. The first presented paper given by Marc Barisch from the Unversity of Stuttgart, Gemany was from the EU IST FP6 project Daidalos and was titled Privacy and Identity Management in a Layered Pervasive Service Platform. Marc Barisch is also involved in the SWIFT project. Part of the presentation was the introduction of the Virtual Idenity concept. Results on the Daidalos project related to privacy protection in pervasive environments followed, which included a process on how to protect the privacy of the user towards service providers.The second presentation titled Privacy-Aware Accounting and Billing was on how to guarantee privacy for payment systems using Identity Management. It was given by Vincenzo Falletta, University of Roma Tor Vergata, Italy. In his presentationtilted SWIFT Bridges the Telecom Gap, Amardeo Sarma advocated moving toward an Identinet as the Future Internet with identities of users, services, things, devices or software modules as the end points of communication in a new Internet Architecture. Professor Giuseppe Bianchi from the University of Roma Tor Vergata pointed to interesting legal issues in his presentation titled Privacy-Preserving Network Monitoring: Challenges and Solutions. Operators are collecting a lot of data when doing monitoring, which at least according the latest laws in Italy may be illegal. The new project PRISM is looking at how to address this, and an initial architecture was presented. The final paper by Simone Teofili, also from the University of Roma Tor Vergata was on MPLS Overlays: Design, Implementation and Application to Anonymous Networking. He pointed that existing solutions were proprietary and presented a solution based on MPLS.
