Cover of Rethinking Public Key Infrastructures and Digital Certificates by Brands
Rethinking Public Key Infrastructures and Digital Certificates:
Building in Privacy

by Stefan A. Brands
$35 USA / $52.50 CAN
315 pages, hardbound

Stefan Brands likes cash. Electronic cash. He spent much of his early career researching digital currency, and holds several patents to prove it.

But Brands also likes privacy. Electronic privacy.

As a senior cryptographer at Zero-Knowledge Systems, Brands currently focuses his research efforts on privacy in an increasingly network-centric world. However, his interest in privacy didn't begin at Zero-Knowledge.

Rethinking Public Key Infrastructures and Digital Certificates is an updated version of Stefan Brands' doctoral thesis. As such, to fully appreciate what he is discussing requires some advanced mathematical understanding. Many pages are replete with the formulae that sprout from the arcane language of mathematicians.

This book will mainly interest those who understand the intricacies and nuances of cryptomathematics, but a layperson can find value in reading about the privacy issues surrounding PKIs and certificates that Brands discusses.
