Implementing Email and Security Tokens: Current Standards, Tools, and Practices, By Sean Turner & Russ Housley, John Wiley & Sons, Inc., May 2008.

In the early days of the Internet, no one worried about security. Those days are long gone. Today, secure electronic mail is available, yet very few people use it. In this book, the authors explain security tools, including cryptography, security protocols, tokens, and hardware security modules to protect your email. You do not need to be an expert in these technologies. Products are available that can help you. This book provides the information needed to wisely select products, and successfully deploy them.
