Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Have a look at Secure Electronic Commerce: Building the Infrastructure for Digital Signatures and Encryption if you've been charged with setting up a Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) for an organisation, or if you're just not content to trust commercial products' claims of security. This book gives a clear and complete overview of digital certificate management techniques. This richly detailed and heavily referenced volume generally stays clear of implementation specifics. Readers can count on it to provide the background in concepts and terminology that they'll need to make PKI design decisions.

Without exception, this is a very clearly written book, but there are rather few conceptual diagrams--and a few more graphics might have clarified the relationships among entities. Regardless, it's abundantly evident that the authors did a great deal of research--a rarity in this field. Nearly every other sentence contains a reference to an endnote. Study this book and the material it references, and participate in online forums on PKI issues to truly understand how PKI works. --David Wall

Topics covered: Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) design and functionality, including the legal principles behind binding electronic transactions and the details of authentication, encryption, non-repudiation, and key management. Certificates, Certificate Authorities (CAs), and means of managing trust relationships are all covered. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Product Description

A guide to Building encryption and authentication technology into an online system used for electronic commerce. Covers both technical and legal issues.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent., 8 Jun 2000
I am an experienced networking guy with a need to understand security. This is an excellent and very readable book on the "public" side of crypto-security. It deals with the legal and technical issues and I found it particularly useful for the way it took me beyond the technology of certificates into the Public Key Infrastructure. My only complaint, and it is very minor, is that I would have like more hard data on the current structure of the PKI. A lot of information but well written and an excellent reference.
