Riassunto

With the recent Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, public key cryptography, digital signatures, and digital certificates are finally emerging as a ubiquitous part of the Information Technology landscape. Although these technologies have been around for over twenty years, this legislative move will surely boost e-commerce activity. Secure electronic business transactions, such as contracts, legal documents, insurance, and bank loans are now legally recognized. In order to adjust to the realities of the marketplace, other services may be needed, such as a non-repudiation service, digital notary, or digital time-stamping service. The collection of these components, known as Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), is paving the way for secure communications within organizations and on the public Internet.

Dalla quarta di copertina

By allowing digital signatures to be as valid as handwritten signatures, public key infrastructure (PKI) provides businesses with a quick alternative to the sometimes lengthy process of documentation. Public Key Infrastructure shows programmers and engineers how to build appropriate layers of security throughout the network, letting businesses put to rest concerns of how to protect assets and freeing them to concentrate on adding value for employees, customers, and business partners. The book also takes a close look at what constitutes effective public key infrastructures, why their protection is crucial to success, and some thoughts for consideration prior to implementing custom PKIs.
