 Micke Pettersson and  Ulf Sporrong were during the time 1 April - 12 June 1998 doing an exam work at Ericsson Radio System, Kista, Stockholm in the web security area. During this work a lot of information were gathered and this page was formed. Here are some some information about different methods and links to interesting sites on the web.

Click here for an outline of our report from the examwork

Cryptographic systems:

• Algorithms used by the methods we studied

• Certificates

• Firewalls

Security protocols/methods "on the market":

• S/MIME  - higher level protocol, eg add to the program you wish to use.

• S-HTTP- higher level protocol, eg add to the program you wish to use

• SSL- lower level protocol, eg create a secure channel to use.

• SSH- lower level protocol, eg create a secure channel to use.

Organisations:

• http://www.ietf.org - Internet Engineering Task Force.

• http://www.w3.org - The World Wide Web Consortium.
