I think most PKI is superficial and doesn't provide real value above what self-signing would provide. It's the trust factor that I find sketchy, for most purposes. But if more vendors worked the way StartSSL does, and were as reasonable, the whole business would be a lot more legit and I'd have little interest in complaining about it. It's a dirty industry, but StartSSL could change that with enough market share, and I encourage everyone to use them who needs paid-for certs.<br /><br />Cost to run your own BIND (or TinyDNS, etc) in EC2 would be a pretty penny, but Route53 gives you a decent interface to manage your zone, and costs regular people about $1/mo - you're just riding on their DNS infrastructure instead of renting a VM (as with EC2). It's $0.50/mo just to have your first 25 domains, and another $0.50/mo per million queries. Most domains don't generate a million queries per month to DNS, so for folks like us it's basically a buck a month for a highly resilient, easy to manage DNS.<br /><br />For my own amusement I've been writing tools to the Route53 API so I can manage zones from the command line, but the web UI is pretty good.David Championhttp://dgc.uchicago.edu/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4695461192314112143.post-70687697338201481742013-07-17T01:45:56.573-07:002013-07-17T01:45:56.573-07:00I admit, I'm a little terrified of running a D...I admit, I'm a little terrified of running a DNS, due to complexity & vulnerability issues. I'm a big fan of AWS in general, but I haven't kept up with it lately, and Route53 is new to me (and looks interesting). Based on a quick look, it seems like the cost per month is a little non-trivial (e.g. constantly running instance)?<br /><br />I think it's fair to say that StartSSL certificates aren't snakeoil at all. They're very clear on exactly what sort of validation is used for which steps. Of course, control-of-domain & control-of-email-address isn't very high-level validation. But we've see examples of how even higher levels of validation can be spoofed (or bypassed)...<br /><br />Thanks for the comment!xianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01991290472959345882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4695461192314112143.post-32290772424425431662013-07-17T01:30:57.810-07:002013-07-17T01:30:57.810-07:00I like StartSSL a lot.

Personal identity validation can be difficult if you don't fit a 95% profile (e.g. can't send them a phone bill), and they're not very open about what their validation entails, but since they take snakeoil seriously I can appreciate that somewhat. And if snakeoil is ever going to be legit, someone needs to take it seriously in the way that StartSSL does, instead of in the way that Verisign does.<br /><br />I actually enjoy running mail and DNS, but lately I've been using Amazon AWS Route53 for the latter. Like. Seems like it would handily address this problem.David Championhttp://dgc.uchicago.edu/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4695461192314112143.post-88905328834824087422013-06-29T07:01:57.539-07:002013-06-29T07:01:57.539-07:00I wish there was a place where I could smoke insid...I wish there was a place where I could smoke inside an airport.
