  • How to Build an X.509 PKI That Works
    How to build a PKI that works Peter Gutmann University of Auckland How to build an X.509 PKI that works Peter Gutmann University of Auckland Preliminaries Whose PKI are we talking about here? •Not SSL certs –Certificate manufacturing, not PKI It’s just an expensive way of doing authenticated DNS lookups with a TTL of one year. Plenty of PK, precious little I — Peter Gutmann on the crypto list •Not PGP, SPKI, *ML, etc –Doing fairly well in their (low-I) area •Not government PKI initiatives –Government IT project reality distortion field, keep pumping in money until it cries Uncle –Even then, the reality distortion has failed in parts of Europe, Australia Preliminaries (ctd) This is PKI for the rest of us •Businesses, individuals, etc Talk covers exclusively technical issues •Policies are someone else’s problem Ted says that whenever he gets asked a religious question he doesn’t understand he always responds with “Ah, that must be an ecumenical matter” which universally produces nods of admiration at the profound wisdom of the statement. It seems that that the PKIX list equivalent is “Ah, that must be a policy matter” — Father Ted (via Anon) •Some religion may sneak in Preliminaries (ctd) Microsoft bashing: An apology in advance •Their PKI software is the most widespread, and features prominently in examples because of this •There is no indication that other software is any better, it just gets less publicity It may be a little controversial… 56th IETF agenda item, submitted as a joke when someone pointed out that PKIX didn’t have any agenda What needs to be done to make PKI work? This forum will be open to all PKIX members, and will constitute a large pool filled knee-deep with custard.

  • Security Policies for the Federal Public Key Infrastructure
    Security Policies for the Federal Public Key Infrastructure Noel A. Nazario Security Technology Group National Institute of Standards and Technology Abstract This document discusses provisions for the handling of security policies in the proposed Federal Public Key Infrastructure (PKI). Federal PKI policies deal with the generation, deactivation, and dissemination of public key certificates, the integrity of the infrastructure, maintenance of records, identification of certificate holders, and the establishment of trust relationships between Certification Authorities (CAs). The verification of a digital signature is not sufficient indication of the trustworthiness of an electronic message or data file. The verifier needs to factor the trustworthiness of the CAs involved in the certification of the sender. To accomplish this, the verifier needs to examine the certificate policy for those CAs. The Federal PKI Technical Security Policy establishes guidelines for the operation of Federal CAs and the identification of the parties requesting certification. It also defines Policy Approving Authorities (PAA) responsible for assessing the policies and operational practices of all Federal CAs within a domain and assigning them corresponding Federal Assurance Levels. These assurance levels may be used in lieu of a certificate policy when making an on-line determination of the trustworthiness of a certificate. Key words Certificate policy, Federal Assurance Levels, PAA, PKI, Policy Approving Authority, public key infrastructure, security policy.

  • Security Economics in the HTTPS Value Chain
    Security Economics in the HTTPS Value Chain Hadi Asghari*, Michel J.G. van Eeten*, Axel M. Arnbak+ & Nico A.N.M. van Eijk+1 * [email protected], [email protected] Delft University of Technology, Faculty of Technology Policy and Management + [email protected], [email protected] University van Amsterdam, Faculty of Law, Institute for Information Law Abstract. Even though we increasingly rely on HTTPS to secure Internet communications, several landmark incidents in recent years have illustrated that its security is deeply flawed. We present an extensive multi-disciplinary analysis that examines how the systemic vulnerabilities of the HTTPS authentication model could be addressed. We conceptualize the security issues from the perspective of the HTTPS value chain. We then discuss the breaches at several Certificate Authorities (CAs). Next, we explore the security incentives of CAs via the empirical analysis of the market for SSL certificates, based on the SSL Observatory dataset. This uncovers a surprising pattern: there is no race to the bottom. Rather, we find a highly concentrated market with very large price differences among suppliers and limited price competition. We explain this pattern and explore what it tells us about the security incentives of CAs, including how market leaders seem to benefit from the status quo. In light of these findings, we look at regulatory and technical proposals to address the systemic vulnerabilities in the HTTPS value chain, in particular the EU eSignatures proposal that seeks to strictly regulate HTTPS communications. Keywords: HTTPS, Cybersecurity, Internet Governance, Constitutional Values, E-Commerce, Value Chain Analysis, Security Economics, eSignatures Regulation, SSL, TLS, Digital Certificates, Certificate Authorities.
