PGP uses the "Web of Trust" model, rather than the x.509 "Chain of Trust", but it does rely on you trusting people who in turn trust the signer's key. For example, none of you likely trust the signature on this message very far :). > > That's assuming that the hackers don't have control of the agency > computer. > To be fair, that's the same problem with S/MIME -- no telling whether or not the machine itself was compromised. Honestly, the best way around that is physical -- i.e. "come down to the office and ..."; rather than acting on instructions received via electronic means (in fact, that's how several businesses I interact with are - you either have to walk into their office, or use the phone [although phone instructions can be rejected if they're "doing too much"]). -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEzBAEBCAAdFiEEBcqaUD8uEzVNxUrujhHd8xJ5ooEFAluou9EACgkQjhHd8xJ5 ooEZiQgAmBnE2KSt2BlN04B5dkN9rVPXBzK1j/qRxod827zwJS7q8a9XFsl5EPAp CdczrxZrurY/dPAVIzjLfIqG1Xrn5bCQR7bYK78Z7qSlMdwJzYjDQrTmM/2pU4tg +oBwsk2dlcbTGIqZzEwsdBxnDoCxvTbOqlrnNIeyml2Tl9MoWJ0h9y3KC1S6WRGn 8j8eGB+S/jMl7ajEis9L5bnBPz2pPziHlFXw7TUUnxbLxR4803ufQ84I3Hh+FrzL 8lvFFkPGpnSAJwcJuM6Kj21IlwpW9nyIB+2tTpOsSFGjZzpmnVkNODdjLlUASSvT 2EbkRrDvvNCeukhZx8HkHwBWQlPPAw== =fuaJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- |_|O|_| Registered Linux user #585947 |_|_|O| Github: https://github.com/dpurgert |O|O|O| PGP: 05CA 9A50 3F2E 1335 4DC5 4AEE 8E11 DDF3 1279 A281
