| Keynote: Towards decentralized PKI
Decentralized PKI (DPKI) is a security framework that enables the management and verification of digital identities and cryptographic keys without relying on a centralized authority, enhancing trust, privacy, and resilience. This keynote will provide a high-level overview of decentralized PKI, including its underlying technology, how it operates, its key characteristics and benefits, and will outline the roadmap for its standardization.
