SPKI Certs Usage
by Jay Listo 03 Jun '05

03 Jun '05

I've been wondering about the feasibility of using SPKI certs. I quite like some of the features (delegation) and relative ease of implementation (compared to X.509 certs)...of course, readability of certs could go a long way to helping end-users evaluate for themselves the trustworthiness of the cert. While pgp certs could probably be a good alternative (given the existing user base and infrastructure)....even though lacking in the ability to delegate. However, I'm a little wary since at the moment there seem to be just a few sources of info or proponents (even though their arguments seem convincing to me) when it comes to SPKI. I am also not aware of any products or PKIs that use SPKI certs. I would really appreciate if someone could refer me to instances of actual usage of SPKI certs.

There is no link to SSL or PKI. The only thing in common is the objective - to protect the user when browsing. Secure browsing is now being offered by centralised database sans crypto. > Netcraft bypasses it, but I won't use Netcraft exclusively because I'm > happy to use the crypto in SSL. Netcraft and Trustbar are really nice > add-ons to improve my security *with SSL*. So where is the point? Sure, I think it is a piece of junk, myself. But I am not important, I'm not an "average user." The only thing that is important is what the user thinks and does. When Netcraft announced their plugin had been ported from IE to Firefox last week, they also revealed that they had "60,000 downloads in hours." That tells us a few things. Firstly, users want protection from phishing. Secondly, Netcraft have succeeded enough in the IE world in creating a user base for their solution that it easily jumped across to the Firefox userbase and scored impressive numbers straight away. Which tells us that it actually delivers something useful (which may or may not be security). So we cannot discount that the centralised database concept works "well enough" by some measure or other. So now we wait to see which model wins in protecting the user from spoofing. iang -- Advances in Financial Cryptography: https://www.financialcryptography.com/mt/archives/000458.html --------------------------------------------------------------------- The Cryptography Mailing List Unsubscribe by sending "unsubscribe cryptography" to majordomo(a)metzdowd.com

Right, so we are agreed that listening to credit cards is not an economic attack - regardless of the presence of SSL. Now, the point of this is somewhat subtle. It is not that you should turn off SSL. The point is this: you *could* turn off SSL and it wouldn't make much difference to actual security in the short term at least, and maybe not even in the long term depending on the economic shifts. OK, so, are we agreed on that: we *could* turn off SSL, but that isn't the same thing as "should* ? If we've got that far we can go to the next step. If we *could* turn off SSL then we have some breathing space, some room to manouvre. Some wiggle room. Which means we could modify the model. Which means we could change the model, we could tune the crypto or the PKI. And in the short term, that would not be a problem for security because there isn't an economic attack anyway. Right now, at least. OK so far? This means that we could improve or decrease its strength ... as our objectives suggest ... or we could *re-purpose* SSL if this were so desired. So we could for example use SSL and PKI to protect from something else. If that were an issue. Let's assume phishing is an issue (1.2 billion dollars of american money is the favourite number). If we could figure out a way to change the usage of SSL and PKI to protect against phishing, would that be a good idea? It wouldn't be a bad idea, would it? How could it be a bad idea when the infrastructure is in place, and is not currently being used to defeat any attack? So, even in a stupidly aggressive worst case scenario, if were to "turn off SSL/PKI" in the process and turn its benefit over to phishing, and discover that it no longer protects against listening attacks at all - remember I'm being ridiculously hypothetical here - then as long as it did *some* benefit in stopping phishing, that would still be a net good. That is, there would be some phishing victims who would thank you for saving them, and there would *not* be any Visa merchants who would necessarily damn your grandmother for losing credit cards. Not in the short term at least. And if listening were to erupt in a frenzy in the future it would likely be possible to turn off the anti-phishing tasking and turn SSL/PKI back to protecting against eavesdropping. Perhaps as a tradeoff between the credit card victim and the phishing victim. But that's just stupidly hypothetical. The main thing is that we can fiddle with SSL/PKI if we want to and we can even afford to make some mistakes. So the question then results in - could it be used to benefit phishing? I can point at some stuff that says it will be. But every time this good stuff is suggested, the developers, cryptographers, security experts and what have you suck air between their teeth in and say you can't change SSL or PKI because of this crypto blah blah reason. My point is you can change it. Of course you can change it - and here's why: it's not being economically used over here (listening), and right over there (phishing), there is an economic loss waiting attention. > However, when companies finally find some > countermeasures against both attack vectors, adversaries will adapt and > recalculate the economics.

SSL is a very good countermeasure against > passive eavesdropping of this kind, and a lot of data suggests that > active attacks like MITM are seen much less frequently. All that is absolutely true, in that we can conjecture that if we close everything else off, then sniffing will become economic. That's a fair statement. But, go and work in one of these places for a while, or see what Perry said yesterday: > The day to day problem of security at real financial institutions is > the fact that humans are very poor at managing complexity, and that > human error is extremely pervasive. .... I'm sure that you'll agree that the likelihood of them closing of all the other attacks is next to nil. Even if some top flight security experts manages to find a client that really cares about security and they together manage to actually lock everything down (a rather low probability, I'd suggest) then there will still be 1000 other places for the attacker to steal the data. The day to day reality of financial institutions is that they do not have good protections in place, they have *adequate* protections for what they *know* about. Which means that there is plenty of pickings out there. So I would suggest that listening for credit cards will never ever be an economic attack. Sniffing for random credit cards at the doorsteps of amazon will never ever be an economic attack, not because it isn't possible, but because there always likely to be easier pickings elsewhere. But don't get me wrong - I am not saying that we should carry out a world wide pogrom on SSL/PKI. What I am saying is that once we accept that listening right now is not an issue - not a threat that is being actively dedended against - this allows us the wiggle room to deploy that infrastructure against phishing. Does that make sense? iang PS: nor does it matter whether I'm right or I'm wrong about my prediction that sniffing will be an economic attack or not - it's just a prediction about the future, just a hypothetical estimate. What matters is now: what attacks are happening now. Does phishing exist, and does it take a lot of money?
