CITP is releasing a report today based on a two day in-person workshop on the security of the Web Public Key Infrastructure (Web PKI) we held last year.

For the "W3C Workshop on the Future of Social Networking", taking place in Barcelona January 2009

The concept of a Web of Trust is most closely associated with Phil Zimmerman and PGP. The basic idea is that by signing each other's keys, usually at things like key signing parties, people could grow the network of keys they trusted to sign or encrypt documents such as email, sign legal documents, etc... The distributed system of trust feels right, but the idea never really took off, even though the keysigning parties must have been fun, probably because they still required physical presence. In foaf+ssl we are also using a Web of Trust mechanism, but as I will show here, this does not require key signing, and furthermore it uses PKI to do this (some may say it subverts PKI to do this). It should therefore be able to grow much faster, and hopefully give us the same benefits.

Product security plans and automating security with security as code offer a new — and better — approach to achieving app and cloud security goals.
