The RISEPTIS report , ‘Trust in the Information Society’, which makes recommendations on future trust and security research challenges, was published in November, 2009. To date, over 1,500 hard copies of the report have been disseminated to various interested parties, both across Europe and globally. Additionally, the Report has been downloaded from the Think-Trust website 3,332 times, giving a total distribution of over 4,800 copies of ‘Trust in the Information Society’.

To provide an accessibility point for its high-level recommendations, the Report tells six interwoven short-stories about a young couple – Jorge and Theresa – and their (mostly) electronic interactions with the surrounding environment as they go on their merry way.The six main RISEPTIS recommendations formed the basis for the recent Trustworthy ICT conference in Leon, Spain.
