S/MIME is the standard, widely available protocol for sending and receiving protected MIME data. It provides authentication, message integrity and non-repudiation of origin (using digital signatures), and data confidentiality (using encryption). Here, the author looks at the collection of standards that make up S/MIME, including its history, protocol, and future.
