Now
you can get technical
After you have a firm set of requirements, focus on design. This determines
how you're going to satisfy requirements with least cost. The design
should fully describe what components and configurations are necessary
to satisfy the requirements.
Through
the design process, produce a design specification that highlights
the chosen design elements and provides a diagram indicating the placement
of access points within the facility. For smaller networks, you may
only spend a day or so designing the solution. In larger implementations,
it may take weeks or months to fully define enough technical detail
before moving forward with the acquisition of hardware and installation
services. These larger projects will likely benefit from simulation,
prototyping, or pilot testing as part of the design to ensure you've
made the right choices and the requirements are fully realizable.
Keys in the Clear
In a typical SSL installation, the server maintains credentials
so that clients can authenticate the server. In addition to presenting
a certificate at connection time, the server also maintains a private
key, which is necessary for establishing that the server presenting
a certificate is actually presenting its own certificate. Cryptographic-acceleration
cards will generally store the key in hardware, making it unavailable
to the actual computer. |
