I've (re)discovered how to become S/MIME compliant. I am now suprised how easy it was. Some years ago it was far more difficult. Now I'm able to sign and encrypt my emails.
Why is it important?
Signing: it tell the other with an aboslute certitude the writer of the mail is you or at least used your computer.
Encrypt: because sometimes you need to be 100% sure a conversation remains private.
How to proceed?
- Get a certificate signed by a CA: click here to get a free one,
- open the file,
- empty your trash, put the file in the trash, secure empty trash,
- use Mail instead of online gmail. Now you should see these icons: blogimage("sign_icon.png","Sign icon")
n.b.: if you use gmail, you and work not alway with a Mac, you should consider to try the gmail S/MIME firefox addon.
