Format:Paperback
I am an experienced networking guy with a need to understand security. This book claims that it is about "Establishing trust over the Internet and other networks" but it didn't hit the mark for me. A large chunk of it is about vendor reviews, which I found to be relatively unhelpful. Rarely leaves my bookshelf.
Format:Paperback
This excellent book gives a clear overview of electronic signatures, with examples of use and mention of the current major players. Any manager considering investing in secure Internet transactions (sales, information distribution, remote login, etc.) will profit from taking a long evening to read through this book.

The descriptions of the technology were OK, but the case studies, etc., were repetitive, obscure, and largely useless.
