Achieving Email Security Usability
Overview Despite the widespread perception that email security is of critical importance cryptographic email security is very seldom used. Numerous solutions to the problem of securing email have been developed and standardized but these have proved difficult to deploy and use. One of the main reasons for this difficulty is that each piece of the required technology has been developed independently as a generic platform on which security solutions may be built. As a consequence the user is left with an unacceptably complex configuration problem. This paper proposes a means of providing transparent email security without the need for additional configuration based on existing security standards (XKMS, S/MIME, PGP, PKIX) and the recent DKIM standards proposal.
