CS526 – Advanced Internet And Web Systems Semester Project Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) By Samatha Sudarshanam
Introduction • PKI’s? • Functionality of a Public Key Infrastructure • Creation of the key–pair and the certificate request • Signing of the certificate request by the Certification Authority • Certification Authority chains • Typical uses of public key cryptography
PKIX • Important concepts with regard to the PKIX standards • Certificate–using Systems and PKIs • Certificate–using Systems and PMIs
PKIX (cntd …) • PKIX standardization areas. • Public–key infrastructure functionality • Public–Key Infrastructure (PKI) • Privilege Management Infrastructure (PMI)
PKIX standardization areas • PKIX standardization areas • Profiles of X.509 v3 Public Key Certificates and X.509 v2 Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs). • Management protocols • Operational protocols. • Certificate policies and Certificate Practice Statements. • Time–stamping and data–certification/validation services
Public–key infrastructure functionality • Registration • Initialisation • Certification • Key–pair recovery • Key generation • Key update • Key expiry • Key compromise • Cross certification • Revocation • Certificate and Revocation Notice Distribution and Publication
Conclusion • This document describes Public Key Infrastructures, the PKIX standards, practical PKI functionality. Its aim is foster the creation of viable open–source PKI implementations.
