-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2010-3206 2010-03-02 00:29:38 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : pki-kra Product : Fedora 12 Version : 1.3.1 Release : 2.fc12 URL : http://pki.fedoraproject.org/ Summary : Dogtag Certificate System - Data Recovery Manager Description : Dogtag Certificate System is an enterprise software system designed to manage enterprise Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) deployments. The Dogtag Data Recovery Manager is an optional PKI subsystem that can act as a Key Recovery Authority (KRA). When configured in conjunction with the Dogtag Certificate Authority, the Dogtag Data Recovery Manager stores private encryption keys as part of the certificate enrollment process. The key archival mechanism is triggered when a user enrolls in the PKI and creates the certificate request. Using the Certificate Request Message Format (CRMF) request format, a request is generated for the user's private encryption key. This key is then stored in the Dogtag Data Recovery Manager which is configured to store keys in an encrypted format that can only be decrypted by several agents requesting the key at one time, providing for protection of the public encryption keys for the users in the PKI deployment. Note that the Dogtag Data Recovery Manager archives encryption keys; it does not archive signing keys, since such archival would undermine nonrepudiation properties of signing keys. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Add 'pki-console' as a runtime dependency -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #566059 - Add 'pki-console' as a runtime dependency for CA, KRA, OCSP, and TKS . . . https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=566059 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
