Followup

This section was added after the keysigning and contains some useful followup information.

Original Page

The signup deadline has passed
If you still want to participate, bring about 60 slips with your key's fingerprint printed or neatly written on it.

There will be a GPG Key Signing Event held at FUDCon Blacksburg 2012 on Saturday, January 14th, at 1700 (5pm). There will also be a CAcert Assurance event held at 1600 (4pm), immediately preceding this event.

Please sign up below and make sure your key is available on the public keyserver network or make a note here with the url if it is not.

Notice of change

Nick and I are working through the last minute logistics that goes along with the event. We hadn't planned on this event event being so popular! With this in mind we have decided to change the way we are doing the key verifications. Originally we were planning on each person, individually, standing up and reading their key aloud while everyone else verified the paper copy provided for the event. This procedure is used most often and is the most secure. The problem is we now have forty-four forty-nine keys to be signed! That's going to take a while!

For larger parties the recommended procedure is the "hash-based method". The keys will still be provided to everyone on paper. The file will be digitally signed (and electronic versions of the document will be made available). At the event everyone verifies that *their* key is listed correctly on the paper and then the host will read the hash to everyone so that everyone can verify that their copy is correct and has not been modified. Once this happens and everyone is satisfied that they have the correct list of keys then we check everyone's identification.

If anyone has any concern about this procedure please let us know *now* so we can address this.

keyring to import

Things to bring to the event:

  1. Yourself
  2. At least one government issued photo ID
  3. Your key's fingerprint
  4. A pen/pencil or whatever you'd like to write with....
  5. NO computer (or at least leave it in your bag or something, you don't need to actually sign the keys right then)

Why shouldn't I bring a computer?

There are a variety of reasons, why you don't want to do this. The short answer is it would be insecure, unsafe, and of no benefit. For those not convinced, here are some reasons why it is insecure, unsafe, and of no benefit.

  • If people are carrying their secret keys with them and intend to do the signing at the actual meeting by typing their passphrase into a computer, then they are open to key-logging attacks, shoulder-surfing, etc.
  • Someone might spill $beverage on it.
  • Someone might drop it or knock it off the table.
  • Etc

Keysigning Procedure

  1. Generate a key/Remember your pass phrase
  2. All attendees send their public keys to a public keyserver. For this party, we'll use keys.bz or keys.christensenplace.us. If for some reason you don't want your key to be in a public keyserver, but still want to participate, please let me know.
  3. All attendees posts their fingerprint to this wiki page (see below). The event coordinator will compile everyone's key information.
  4. The host prints a list with everyone's fingerprint from the compiled keyrings and distributes copies of the printout at the meeting.
  5. Attend the party. Bring along a paper copy of your fingerprint that you obtained from your own keyring. You must also bring along a suitable photo ID. Instruct the attendees at the beginning that they are to make two marks on the listing, one for correct key information and one if the ID check is ok.
  6. At the meeting the host will distribute the key forms and a hash of that form (also available from this wiki page). The host will read the hash key out so that everyone can verify they have the same file. Everyone will verify that their fingerprint is correct on the form. Once everyone has verified these two pieces of information we will start with the identifications.
  7. After everyone has read his key ID information, have all attendees form a line.
  8. The first person walks down the line having every person check his ID.
  9. The second person follows immediately behind the first person and so on.
  10. If you are satisfied that the person is who they say they are, and that the key on the printout is theirs, you place another check-mark next to their key on your printout.
  11. Once the first person cycles back around to the front of the line he has checked all the other IDs and his ID has been checked by all others.
  12. After everybody has identified himself or herself the formal part of the meeting is over. You are free to leave or to stay and discuss matters of PGP and privacy (or anything else) with fellow PGP users. If everyone is punctual the formal part of the evening should take less than an hour.
  13. After confirming that the key information on the key server matches the printout that you have checked, sign the appropriate keys. Keys can only be signed if they have two check-marks.
  14. Send the signed keys back to the keyservers.
  15. Use those keys as often as possible.

Acceptable Identification

We are not providing specific guidelines on what IDs are acceptable, or how many are required, however, it is generally expected that each participant will be able to provide some sort of government issued photo identification, such as driver's license, passport, etc., matching the name on their key. It is up to the other participants whether or not they will accept your identification.

Uploading your key to a keyserver

To upload your key, do gpg --keyserver keys.bz --send-keys 0xYOURKEYID

(Virginia Tech also operates a keyserver at keyserver.cns.vt.edu.)

CAcert Assurance

There will also be a CAcert Assurance event.
