I've recently revamped part 2 of my Godzilla security tutorial, splitting off the coverage of digital signature legislation and related issues into its own section. Part2a, consisting of a total of 79 slides, covers the question of why we need digital signature legislation, what is a signature, paper vs.electronic signatures, non-repudiation, trust, and liability, existing approaches, examples of existing legislation of various types including advantages and drawbacks, and the Digital Signature Law litmus test (and it also explains why having a techie comment on legal issues isn't as silly as it sounds :-). It's available as part 2a of the Godzilla tutorial at http://www.cs.auckland.ac.nz/~pgut001/tutorial/index.html. Comments welcome Peter. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The Cryptography Mailing List Unsubscribe by sending "unsubscribe cryptography" to majordomo@wasabisystems.com
