| This method is in no way a replacement for SSL/TLS, e.g. because it does not allow encrypted connections and is one-way only "server -> client". However, due to the fact that it does not need to be implemented "server side", this method is very useful in all the situations in which the web server is not under the direct control of the web designer, when SSL/TLS cannot be used (the most common example is someone who wants to sign a personal page hosted on a free hosting system like the present one, freely provided by Altervista.org).
In many situations, this method represents the only way to authenticate a HTML web page. |
