- Description: leverage the OpenPGP web of trust for SSH and TLS authentication
- SSH key-based authentication is tried-and-true, but it lacks a true
- Public Key Infrastructure for key certification, revocation and
- expiration. Monkeysphere is a framework that uses the OpenPGP web of
- trust for these PKI functions. It can be used in both directions:
- for users to get validated host keys, and for hosts to authenticate
- users. Current monkeysphere SSH tools are designed to integrate
- with the OpenSSH implementation of the Secure Shell protocol.
- .
- Monkeysphere can also be used by a validation agent to validate TLS
- connections (e.g. https).
