Enterprise Security information
December 1, 2008
E-mail is a agile transmission system, but lacked the most basic protections. E-mail messages can be supplanted or destroyed without consent of the sender. The messages travel through several nodes or computers, and each of them is a vulnerability. Anyone can benefit from these malicious weaknesses in our own prejudice. You do not even need to be a systems administrator with certain access privileges, nor a specialist in information technology and telecommunications. The e-mail system is so weak that anyone can meddle with only minimal knowledge about that are available to everyone.
The fact that information is in digital form the problems increases: it is possible to create programs that identify certain messages to intercept their transport or copy its contents. On the other hand, the electronic information can be changed more readily than a postal letter, since there is no kind of heading or personal marks of the true sender. Finally the offense is probably unpunished, because the digital manipulation can be done without leaving a trace of the offender. I do not think anyone sensible would send a letter typed and without postal heading. Entered into an envelope typed and without closing. It’s easy to understand that this would entail a great risk because they lack on guard, be exposed to the eyes of anyone; to be typed with no signs personal, anyone can modify its content, for lack of entry, anyone can easily impersonate the sender theoretical . But that’s what usually is done with email.
PGP ( “Pretty Good Privacy”) is a program that helps to do a Data Protection, especially oriented to increase the security of our electronic messages. PGP in free version you can generate your own keys without depending on any company or agency. It is a system recommended by universities and other organizations that lack of stringent business interests concrete. PGP features emoticons and Each user has two keys, his personal pair of keys, which can be used with PGP to encrypt Enterprise Security information. Any document can be encrypted using one of the keys, and that document is encrypted on a totally incomprehensible. The resulting encrypted using one or the other key is different, and why these approaches Crypto systems are known as “dual-key asymmetric” (short-or-”asymmetric key”). There is only one way to decode the document and this is done using the other key necessarily the same person.
Apparently this does not give many chances, but we’ll see right away that offers interesting combinations. One of the keys is private, only to be saved and used by the owner. The other key is public domain, anyone can enter disclosed or openly, so that it is accessible to everybody who wants to interact with the user. This also allows the method is called “public key”, leaving implicit that there is also a private key for the same user. Your trusted Email Security is here and your data is on the move, Are you ready ?.
