Wait, there's a standard for securing email? I thought we just used carrier pigeons and secret handshakes!

I had no idea there was a whole standard for securing emails. I always just assumed it was magic!

Yeah, S/MIME is a way to use public keys to secure emails. It's part of the X.509 standard.

I thought the same thing! But apparently there's a specification called S/MIME for securing emails.

D) S/MIME, easy peasy! Securing email with public keys is what I was born to do.

SSL? Isn't that for securing websites? I think I need to read the question more carefully.

Hmm, I'm pretty sure IPSec is for securing network traffic, not email. Maybe I need to brush up on my crypto standards.
