An in-depth technical guide on the security technology driving Internet e-commerce expansion.
"Planning for PKI" examines the number-one Internet security technology that will be widely adopted in the next two years. Written by two of the architects of the Internet PKI standards, this book provides authoritative technical guidance for network engineers, architects, and managers who need to implement the right PKI architecture for their organization. The authors discuss results and lessons learned from early PKI pilots, helping readers evaluate PKI deployment impact on current network architecture while avoiding the pitfalls of early technical mistakes. Four technical case studies detail the do's and don'ts of PKI implementation, illustrating both successes and failures of different deployments. Readers will also learn how to leverage future PKI-related technologies for additional benefits.

Free Planning for PKI: Best Practices Guide for Deploying Public Key Infrastructure
I have found that an unscientific--albeit effective--way to gauge the success of an idea or technology is to do a search on the subject at Amazon.com and see how many returns you get. For diet, there are well over 15,000 titles. For PKI (public key infrastructure), there are exactly four.While there are nearly 4,000 times as many books about dieting as there are books about PKI, the similarities between the two subjects are interesting. Both dieting and PKI are often difficult to do right, but when they are done correctly, the positive effects are immense.
In a nutshell, a PKI is a set of technologies that enables users of inherently insecure networks and software applications (i.e., the Internet and browsers) to exchange data and perform transactions securely and privately. In a PKI, each user has a set of cryptographic keys comprised of a public-key and a private-key. A PKI also enables the use of a digital certificate that can be used to identify items such as individual end users, host systems, organizations, and directory services. PKI is based on public key cryptography, which is the most common method used to authenticate the sender of a message, or to encrypt that message.
A PKI establishes digital trust and maintains that level of assurance. In the real world, trust is built through a complex web of social, legal, national, international, and business interactions that may take years or decades to develop. Unfortunately, that same level of trust is much harder to implement in the electronic world.
With that in mind, Planning for PKI: Best Practices Guide for Deploying Public Key Infrastructure provides a thorough technical introduction to the workings of PKI.
