Negative Positive
Title: Handshakes
Review: "Trust used to be all about a handshake - and nothing has changed..."So begins Appendix F in Vacca's book. The entirety of the book defines that critical handshake, which has been made so much more complex by Internet freedom and opportunities. Layers of certification and handshaking, both online and offline, hashing, third parties, CA's.Vacca includes costings, comparatives, definitions, implementation instructions, and white papers written by others with expertise in the area.Previously a developer and implementor, and now a user, I wish that we had had this information then when we were implementing PGP, and I can only hope that my host sites now are compliant.
Is the review positive or negative?
