Abstract :
A public key infrastructure (PKI) is a key component for most of the current and future secure communications architectures and distributed application environments. Thus, the process of migrating UMU-PKI to IPv6 is important for the successful deployment of IPv6 as a basic component of the future Internet. A recent European research project provides an ideal opportunity to migrate the Java-based UMU-PKI to IPv6 and build new security services over it.
