Brief Information: Key boxes for personal use. Its identification number serves as a part of a declarative identity of its owner on the internet. Average cost per key is $5.0 for a normal key box capable of holding upto 5 keys. Per key pair.
Key boxes are used to hold the pair of keys and certificates belonging to a particular user in public key cryptographic system. It serves another important purpose, namely, it contains a global digital identification number (GID) to identifies its owner. The GID is used as digital ID for a user in the cryptographic system of CryptoGateway.
When the program is first installed, the public account contains a pair of local key source files, which are already included in the default public key map file. Their GID is null and their names are "DemoPub.key" and "DemoPriv.key". Your can generate as many local key sources, which have null GIDs, as you like, in any account, but they should not be used in real communication since every body has the same local key sources. When communications carrying these local keys begin, there is no reason to belief that conflicts and subsequent compromise of your security will not arise. The issuing of GID for real communication is centralized to ensure that there is only one unique GID been used at a given time.
