The legendary cryptographer had spoken earlier that day to human rights advocates at the American Association for the Advancement of Science and was on his way back from a trip to England. He proudly handed us a shrinkwrapped copy of the international version of PGP. Euro-PGP, marketed by Network Associates International B.V. in Amsterdam, is just as secure as U.S.-PGP, and was legally exported -- much to the consternation of nettled cryptocrats at the NSA. Zimmermann says he's been busy steering the development of PGP in a direction consistent with the software's proud cypherpunk heritage. Some of the new features appearing in PGP 6.0: designated revokers, which lets you authorize a trusted friend to tell the world not to trust your key any more if you lose it or if it's stolen. "It's kind of like granting power of attorney to someone," Zimmermann says. The forthcoming version will also support photo IDs -- small graphic files -- attached to keys for added security. ==================================== TIP 4 MB Webspace für ATS 50.- pro Monat, alles inklusive, abholbar sofort http://www.heimatseite.com - -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- edited by Harkank published on: 1998-05-04 comments to office@quintessenz.at subscribe Newsletter - -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.-
