Better security on the web

shttp is the new version of the protocole http. This one didn't ensure enough security on the web, in particular for services on line. That 's why searchers worked on a new protocole and created SHTTP.
S-HTTP was designed by E. Rescorla and A. Schiffman of EIT to secure HTTP connections. S-HTTP provides a wide variety of mechanisms to provide for confidentiality, authentication, and integrity. Separation of policy from mechanism was an explicit goal. The system is not tied to any particular cryptographic system, key infrastructure, or cryptographic format. The internet draft is fairly clear in its presentation of the protocol, although implementation details are sketchy.
