Privacy Enhanced Mail: A User's Perspective.

Abstract

The purpose of this document is to provide a description of the installation and experimentation efforts of Unisys Networks and Information Security Division (NISD), West Coast Operations (WCO), on the Privacy Enhanced Mail version 5.0. Privacy Enhanced Mail (PEM) is being developed by Trusted Information Systems of Glenwood, Maryland. PEM is based upon the the RFCs under development to provide security for internet mail. While those RFCs are not finalized, TIS, GTE Contel Federal Systems, and others have initiated independent development of PEM products. Unisys, West Coast Operations, was selected by the STARS program to beta test PEM for its usefulness in the STARS Software Engineering Environment (SEE). The STARS SEE environment is anticipated to be a widely distributed cooperative effort between software developers and their managers.
