good, broad coverage Rating:
5 / 5
Overall I found this book to cover the key concepts of PKI and its practical use fairly well. The case studies help me relate to how things are actually being done. My issue with other books is that they are too theoretical. Also the book gives me a strong case for expanding my PKI deployment as I can cite other successes (worldwide).
More to do with compliance than with PKI Rating:
4 / 5
The author seems to have "bought" into Public Key Infrastructure completely. Many chapters have a simliar formula:
1. Explain background on the compliance issue or standard
2. Then explain why PKI is so great and solves a majority of the problems with the particular issue being discussed.
This leaves a bit to be desired in some cases as the compliance-heavy discussions really move past PKI and into extremely detailed market compliance issues. This book will be useful for individuals looking for information having to do with Financial, e-Government, and Health Care compliance issues but not necessarily with PKI implementations for Enterprise organizations.
Good stuff Rating:
5 / 5
Good stuff on PKI: technical and business angles. Compliance was the main reason I took at look at this book, since HIPAA affects us day to day. I did appreciate the introduction to the technology (with technical depth). One thing I did really like it was that (to large degree) the book was vendor neutral. Some of the books through the RSA label have some spin. Definitely worth adding this book to the security collection.
