On February 17th the Computer Security Division and the Advanced Network Technologies Division of NIST's Information Technology Laboratory hosted a one-day workshop on technology to address the growing problem of spam e-mail. There are a number of stakeholders involved in devising a solution to the problem that spam has become: the legislative and policy community; the enforcement community; ISPs and vendors; the community of those that must implement the technology; the research and academic community; and finally the normal, private end-users. This workshop brought experts from these various stakeholders together for one of the first meetings of this type to be hosted by the US Government. Attendees also reflected this variety of stakeholders, including attendees from the governments of Mexico and the Netherlands. Next steps for NIST and further technology development are currently being considered.
