Design and Implementation of CA/PKI on the Windows Environment
楊中皇, Xiu-Gi Zeng, Chung-Huang Yang · 2002
CA and PKI are crucial parts of many secure network applications. In this paper, we present our effort in the design and implementation of CA/PKI on the PC Windows environment. The Borland C++Builder 5 is used as a software tool to develop client and server software while the Microsoft SQL is used to manage X.509v3 certificates stored at CA. Our CA server is also equipped with a proprietary hardware device or an off-the-shelf -smart card and reader to store and retrieve private key of the CA. Both client and server software will be freely released to public in the near future. Keyword Certification authority, CA, public-key infrastructure, PKI, time stamping, cryptography
