Issues of Trust in Digital Signature Certificates | 0000-00-00 | Australian Defence Force Academy |
| Trust is an increasingly important concept on the Internet, especially for Electronic Commerce. There are a number of trust-models on the Internet providing authentication which attempt to achieve the maximum of trust with minimum of risks. These include: X.509 standard Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), other PKI such as Pretty Good Privacy (PGP), the Simple Public Key Infrastructure (SPKI) and a Simple Distributed Secure Infrastructure (SDSI). These models use public key encryption techniques, certificates, and digital signatures. A certificate is used as a trust-token between different parties on the Internet to tell others you are really who you say you are. This work is a survey of different existing trusted models, their certificates, their structures, ways of handling transitivity of trust and Certificate Revocation Lists (CRL).

Trouble with DNS | 2000-08-08 | Spirit.com |
| The Domain Name System (DNS) provides a critical service to the Internet--the mapping between names and addresses. DNS also is crucial to the delivery of email. Without DNS, the Internet in its present form might never have existed. And yet, DNS suffers from serious security problems. Many UNIX systems today are running versions of BIND 8.2, the Berkeley Internet Name Daemon, that support the security extensions. But the extensions are rarely used, as they add unwelcome additional complexity to already obscure DNS records, and require a hierarchy of signing authorities (similar but not that same as a PKI) that does not yet exist. While the security extensions will make the Internet a much safer place for e-commerce, it is in use today.
