- The Monkeysphere Project
- ------------------------
- The Monkeysphere project's goal is to extend OpenPGP's web of trust to
- new areas of the Internet to help us securely identify each other
- while we work online.
- Specifically, monkeysphere currently offers a framework to leverage
- the OpenPGP web of trust for OpenSSH authentication.
- In other words, it allows you to use secure shell as you normally do,
- but to identify yourself and the servers you administer or connect to
- with your OpenPGP keys. OpenPGP keys are tracked via GnuPG, and
- monkeysphere manages the known_hosts and authorized_keys files used by
- OpenSSH for authentication, checking them for cryptographic validity.
