Keith Brown poses (yet another) interesting question on DOTNET-CLR this week:
What do you guys plan to do if your private key is compromised?
My reaction would consist of five stages:
C:Development> dir /s bristowe.snk Volume in drive C has no label. Volume Serial Number is 1234-5678. File Not Found
"Hmm... that's odd."
C:Development> dir /s *.snk Volume in drive C has no label. Volume Serial Number is 1234-5678. File Not Found
"Uh oh."
C:Development>cd ..
C:>cacls Development C:Development Everyone:(OI)(CI)F
"Who did this?"
"What else is gone?"
"I'm sure I didn't sign the latest build with my keyfile..."
(Manager enters room.)
Manager: "v1.0 is out the door. Oh, and before I forget, you'd better let me store our keyfile to disk for safe keeping."
"Eep."
Unfortunately, this is a highly probable scenario.
