The WebOfTrust refers to the concept of users signing each others' [PGP]/[GPG] keys (particularly at a KeySigningParty) to build a network, or web, of mutual trust. This is in sharp contrast to [X509], which assumes a strictly hierarchical chain of authority. There are several ongoing studies into the quality of the WebOfTrust concept, such as [http://dtype.org/keyanalyze/]. See also: * [GPG/PGPNotes] * SpringGraph * WhySignEmail ---- CategoryCryptography
