The Virtual Bookcase Reviews of 'PKI Security Solutions for the Enterprise: Solving HIPAA, E-Paper Act, and Other Compliance Issues':

Reviewer Rob Slade wrote:
The introduction states that the book contains basic information and specific examples and models for PKI (Public Key Infrastructure) development and deployment. Part one talks about trust basics. Chapter one wanders through various topics, possibly related to the question of what trust is. Chapter two should discuss PKI components, and eventually does, but the logical structure of the material is poor. Best practices of PKI, in chapter three, is really only some thoughts on how to pick a vendor. The other side of the coin, selling PKI, is in chapter four. Part two, solutions for trust, is mostly a discussion of needs. This content is divided by vertical market, and so chapter five deals with healthcare (talking about HIPAA, and with an odd inclusion of biometrics), a financial product in six, government and identity cards in seven, and communications (mostly email, and mostly existing services that have done just fine without PKI) in eight. Other random topics are in chapter nine, including Kerberos, which doesn't need any PKI. Part three is a list of vendors (in chapter ten), and a closing chapter eleven, that ostensibly talks about the future of PKI, but just does another promotional job selling the PKI concept. The author obviously has commerce in mind, but the hawking goes on so long that pretty much anything of value in this volume gets lost. copyright Robert M. Slade, 2003
