The Concept of Trust in Network Security

Overview Every security system depends on trust, in one form or another, among users of the system. In general, different forms of trust exist to address different types of problems and mitigate risk in certain conditions. Which form of trust to apply in a given circumstance is generally dictated by corporate policy? In a network security solution such as Entrust, there are two important forms of trust that customers should understand: third-party trust and direct (personal) trust. The purpose of this paper is to introduce these concepts and provide additional information so that customers understand which form of trust should be applied in a given situation.
