CDR: Public Key Infrastructure: An Artifact...
by Lynn.Wheeler＠firstdata.com 22 Nov '00

22 Nov '00

the current SSL domain name infrastructure supposedly exists because of issues with trusting the domain name infrastructure ... except the SSL domain name certificate issuer has to trust the same (untrusted) domain name infrastructure when issuing a certificate (i.e. the SSL domain name certificate is no better than the authentication authority that the certificate authority has to rely on as the final arbitrator of domain name ownership). one of the integrity issues with the domain name infrastructure ... is that domain names have been hijacked ... once hijacked ... you can go to certificate authority and get a certificate with that domain name (and the certificate authority will check with the domain name system and confirm that the requester owns the domain name). for more ... see merchant comfort certificate thread at http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/aepay4.htm specific news clipping on hijacking http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/apay4.htm#dnsinteg1 so, the scenario goes that to fix various exposure & integrity risks to SSL domain name certificate infrastructure, the domain name infrastructure that the certification authority relies on needs to have its integrity fixed. the proposal for fixing the domain name infrastructure (on which the SSL domain name certificate issuing authority relies on as the authoritative reference for domain names) is to register public keys at the same time domain names are registered. now the interesting catch-22 is that SSL domain name certificates were in part justified because of weaknesses in the integrity of the domain name infrastructure ... however in order to issue those same SSL domain name certificates, the SSL domain name issuing authority (certificate authority) has to rely on the same domain name infrastructure (that everybody is being told that you can't really trust because of integrity problems ... aka everybody isn't to rely on domain name infrastructure ... because it can't be trusted ... so buy a SSL domain name certificate .... however the SSL domain name certificate issuing certification authority is allowed to rely on the same domain name infrastructure for its authoritative information. The SSL domain name certificate issuing certification authority just isn't telling everybody that it has to reference the domain name infrastructure in order to validate a request for an SSL domain name certificate. I would call that ironic??? Now for even more ironic. In order to fix various integrity exposures in the SSL domain name certificate ... integrity exposures in the domain name infrastructure have to be fixed (i.e. integrity is nominally no stronger than the weakest link). However, fixing integrity exposures in the domain name infrastructure (in order to fix various integrity exposures in SSL domain name certificates) ... can make those certificates superfluous, redundant and unnecessary. Now the issue isn't to use either SSL domain name certificates or domain name infrastructure. Since SSL domain name certificates issuance relies on the domain name infrastructure for its authoritative information ... then the infrastructures that the SSL domain name certificates issuance certification authority relies on has to have its integrity fixed. Now, I considered this somewhat ironic ... that in order to fix a integrity dependency that SSL domain name certificate issuance has ... the fix also eliminates much of the original justification for SSL domain name certificates (i.e. weaknesses in the domain name infrastructure) as well as making SSL domain name certificates superfluous and redundant. SSL domain name certificates provide a binding between public key and domain name. However, if public keys were registered with domain names in the domain name infrastructure ... the purpose of which was to fix various integrity problems in the domain name infrastructure and allow the domain name infrastructure to be trusted by the SSL domain name certificate issuing certification authority ... then the integrity of the domain name infrastructure can be fixed for everybody ... eliminating the purpose of the SSL domain name certificate (aka integrity problems with the domain name infrastructure). Furthermore, if public keys were registered with domain names, then the domain name infrastructure could serve up real-time bindings of public keys and domain names (as part of the domain name lookup process). If a SSL protocol ... when it asked the domain name system to resolve a domain name ... could set a flag and asked that both the resolved domain name and the registered public key be returned ... the efficiency of the SSL protocol would be improved. All in all 1) fixing integrity of domain name infrastructure (so you can trust SSL certificates) eliminates much of the requirement for SSL certificate (i.e. needed because of integrity problems in the domain name infrastructure 2) fixing integrity of domain name infrastructure with the registration of public keys and making that information public as part of standard domain name infrastructure provides a trusted binding between domain name and public key ... making the SSL domain name certificate superfluous and redundant. Now as to the other kind of certificate. My wife and I were hired by a financial services company in 1994 to work with a small client/server startup on the peninsula that wanted their server to be able to interface to the financial transaction infrastructure. One of the things that I eventually specified as part of that infrastructure was a consumer oriented certificate (along the lines of BBB, consumer reports, etc). However, the whole thing was in its infancy and they were having enuf other problems creating infrastructures ... so it has yet to happen. Two people my wife and I worked with at the startup are referenced in the following: http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/aadsmore.htm#dctriv random other refs: http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/aadsmore.htm#client3 http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/aadsmore.htm#client4 http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/96.html#32 http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2000b.html#18 http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/95.html#13

CDR: cypherpunks, The New "AOL" - Free Business Opportunity.
by AM Publishing 22 Nov '00

22 Nov '00

cypherpunks, Does Your ISP Pay You? This one will. Free ISP - Pays You - No Banners - Free Business Opportunity. Over 80,000 joined since Oct. 5, 2000. Why? Expected sign ups in 6 months: Millions... See the opportunity? Its the new "AOL", in its pre launch phase. Secure your position in the network now, its 100% free! You'll i.e. get in on a free full service ISP & Internet Community program, (international) which shares its company revenues with its members! You can secure a position in their (GPC) program option 100% free right now. Millions are estimated to sign up within months after this company has launched and for a ONE TIME $25 fee, which comes with a life time refund guarantee, (no risk in trying out the program) you can also secure a position in their (bronze level) affiliate network. (GPAP) Thus...for a $25 one time investment, you can get thousands of dollars in monthly residual income within a few months. Why? Because with millions estimated to sign up due to the major advertising campaign soon coming (we're talking TV, Radio, Newspapers, Magazines etc.) and the way their pretty fair network is constructed, a huge spillover will be the result, (they build the network for you) and your own organization(s) will be built lightening fast, with no efforts necessary from you. If you would like to contribute with referrals however, fine... then it will go even faster. You can in fact EARN $25 instead of paying the $25 one time affiliate fee by signing up for their Compubank option for direct revenue deposits from this program, if you join their affiliate program now! The bad news are that when they launches, (in the end of this month) the $25 buy in option to the bronze level, will no longer be allowed. So please believe me, you have now a once in a life time opportunity to buy in early in a company which focus on becoming the new AOL and have the resources to do it. I'm dead serious when I say you can very well get rich, if you act now. Its not a hype, it is very realistic... based on the way their brilliant program is constructed and the expected millions of sign ups coming. Can 80,000 pre launch sign ups...be wrong? Can you afford to not at least check it out? For more information, please fill in the form below and we will send it to you in just a few minutes. Your e-mail address will not be shared with others. http://www.veoweb.com/users/ebiznow/gp-info.html Thanks for your time. Sincerely, Arild P.S.
