VERISIGN: Internet Infrastructure Grant program

Verisign supports research that has the potential to improve the availability and security of Internet access in all parts of the world. We are seeking proposals for research topics focused on an Internet that is available and secure in all countries, supporting a range of infrastructures, given the reality that people and organizations are relying to a growing extent on mobile devices of all kinds for their connectivity. Funding of $200 is intended to support two graduate students or equivalent for 1 year, plus institutional overhead.
