The "Web of Trust" describes a network of identity assertions
("OpenPGP certifications") and signing delegations ("OpenPGP trust
signatures"), which can be used to formally validate identity
information in a cryptographic certificate.
.
In particular, this tooling allows the user to associate OpenPGP User
IDs (or simply the e-mail address part of the User ID) with some set
of OpenPGP certificates on the basis of explicit certifications made
by trusted parties.
.
The validation rules and certificate formats used in the Web of Trust
support corroborative, multiparty certification, so there is no need
to assign full trust to any single party.
.
This tooling offers a means to explore the Web of Trust by a library
in Rust, and a command-line interface capable of working with either
certificates in the filesystem or interacting with GnuPG's certificate
store and trust database.
