Digital Identities and the Promise of the Technology Trio: PKI, Smart Cards, and Biometrics | 2007-05-30 | Science Publications |
| This paper looks at one of the evolving crimes of the digital age; identity theft. It argues and explains that if three key technologies were implemented together namely biometrics, smart cards, and PKI, then they can deliver a robust and trusted identification and authentication infrastructure. The paper concludes that such infrastructure may provide the foundation for e-government and ecommerce initiatives as it addresses the need for strong user authentication of virtual identities.

Extended Validation SSL Digital Certificate Research Study | 0000-00-00 | Thawte |
| Late in 2006, the industry standards body called the CA/Browser Forum released its specification for a new class of SSL Certificate called an Extended Validation (EV) SSL Certificate. Because these certificates reliably demonstrate a site's ownership based on a specific, proven authentication methodology, the designers of Microsoftî Internet Explorer 7 have built in a series of interface conventions to indicate the presence of Extended Validation certificates, most notably by changing the background colour of the browser's address bar to green.
This paper looks a study conducted to understand user responses to the green address bar and how it influences online behaviour. Tags: Security Administration, Authentication - Encryption, Authentication - Encryption, Security Administration, IT Budgeting |

VeriSign Trust Network Certificate Policies: Version 2.4 | 2007-04-20 | Verisign |
| The VeriSign Trust Network (VTN) is a global PKI that accommodates a large, public, and widely distributed community of users with diverse needs for communications and information security. VeriSign offers VTN services together with a global network of affiliates ("Affiliates") throughout the world. This paper is the principal statement of policy governing the VTN. The Certificate Policies (CP) sets forth the business, legal, and technical requirements for approving, issuing, managing, using, revoking, and renewing, digital Certificates within the VTN and providing associated trust services for all participants within the VTN.

Pseudonym-Based Cryptography for Anonymous Communications in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks | 2007-03-28 | Inderscience Enterprises |
| Key management for anonymous communication in mobile ad hoc networks is a critical but unsolved problem. Many current anonymous mobile ad hoc routing protocols assume that mobile users share pairwise secrets before they start an anonymous communication session. This assumption is impractical for many ad hoc scenarios where pairwise shared keys are difficult to be set up in advance. Public-key based solution, such as identity-based cryptographic solutions have been proposed for anonymous communications. However, these approaches assume that a centralised Trust Authority (TA) is in charge of the private key generation. Thus, the anonymous communications are not anonymous to the TA. To solve the above mentioned problems, this paper presents pairing-based encryption/decryption, key exchange, blind certificate and revocation solutions for anonymous communications.

Introduction to Entrust PKI | 2007-03-01 | Entrust |
| Entrust software secures digital identities and information, so that one can place trust in all forms of electronic transactions. Trust can be established through user authentication, digital signatures, and the protection of confidential information. This paper provides an overview of Entrust PKI, an introduction to public-key infrastructure, and a quick overview of Entrust's products and services. This paper is suitable for new PKI administrators, or anyone within the organization who wants to learn more about PKI and its operation.

The Directory-Enabled PKI Appliance: Digital Signatures Made Simple, Approach and Real World Experience | 2007-02-28 | ARX |
| This paper presents a novel approach for a PKI based digital signature system for documents in an enterprise setting. A centralized appliance securely stores users' private signing keys. The appliance interfaces with the existing enterprise directory to automatically provision users' keys and certificates. Users authenticate to the appliance using their existing directory credentials in order to access their signing keys. Client applications send document hash values to the appliance to be signed therefore the signing keys themselves never leave the appliance. Streamlined user interface methods enable easy acceptance by users, while streamlined management enables minimal ongoing investment by IT staff. Real world experience with the described system is presented and shows successful deployment in a variety of organizations and markets.

A New Paradigm in PKI Architecture: OTPK Technology for Online Digital Signature | 2007-02-26 | Data Security Systems Solutions |
| This paper presents a paradigm shift in PKI architectures. The OTPK concept is alarmingly simple to understand. Whenever a digital signature is required, the private key is generated, certified, used to compute the digital signature and immediately deleted. All that remains is the digital signature and the public key certificate from the Certification Authority (CA) that is used to verify the digital signature. There is no possible compromise on the private key, no need for user smart cards/USB tokens, no need for CRLs, no need for LDAP directories, no need for OCSP. It is compliant to international digital signature laws.
