History

The Information Trust Institute (ITI) was founded in 2004 as an interdisciplinary unit designed to approach information security research from a systems perspective. It brings a unique and holistic approach to information security by looking at what makes machines, applications, and users trustworthy. It is working to create computer systems, software, and networks that society can depend on to be trustworthy, that is, secure, dependable (reliable and available), correct, safe, private, and survivable. Instead of concentrating on narrow and focused technical solutions, ITI aims to create a new paradigm for designing trustworthy systems from the ground up and validating systems that are intended to be trustworthy.

Participants

ITI is an academic/industry partnership targeting application areas such as electric power, financial systems, defense, and homeland security, among others. It brings together over 90 researchers spanning multiple colleges and units at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. The center's current director is Prof. William H. Sanders, who also was the driving force behind the formation of the institute.
