Hi! I just got in charge of some of the Linux- und Unix- Servers at the University of Salzburg. One of my tasks is to generate a possibility for our organizational unit to communicate safely via Email and store data encrypted. For some reasons I thought of implenting this on base of gnupg.
Maybe you can help me with some ideas. I'm searching the web and I'm writing to others as well, but since this is a big task, I want as many opinions as I can get: I need plugins for many different clients. Unfortunately most of the users have MS Outlook for their primary Mail Client, so I need a plugin which does well with it and isn't too complicated to use. Although we are the IT department, we have many administrative employees who are not all too willing to dive into some "techie mumbo jumbo". Do you have any suggestions? I think, it would be a could idea to create our own CA. Maybe you have some experiences to share? How many people should have access to the CAs passphrase and secret key, what if one of them leaves us, what if an employee with a signed key leaves, etc. Maybe it would even be an option to create an own keyserver. Is this useful or would it be far too overpowered? Thanks a lot, Regards, Thomas -- ***************************************************************** * Thomas Widhalm Unix Administrator * * University of Salzburg IT Services (ITS) * * Systems Management Unix Systems * * Hellbrunnerstr. 34 5020 Salzburg, Austria * * [EMAIL PROTECTED] +43/662/8044-6774 * * gpg: 6265BAE6 * * http://www.sbg.ac.at/zid/organisation/mitarbeiter/widhalm.htm * *****************************************************************
