Abstract :
EVAWEB is a Web-based assessment system that has been developed to evaluate the learning enhancement produced by the use of X.509 Public Key Infrastructure (X.509/PKIX)-based digital signatures in a real environment. EVAWEB allows the students to experience main X.509/PKIX processes related to the digital signature mechanism. In this paper, EVAWEB and its assessment by the students are described
