I just started to read up on Internet security and had a few questions.
When running a an ISA server with server pubishing, do I stil need to
have an SSL (PKI) certificate?
If no, can I still use the HTTPS protocal?
Is there any other setup I could implement for secure Internet
communications?
Are there any books you could recommend on ISA, SSL, or S-HTTP?

You can use self signed certificates. However, the users will get a warning
about your certificate not being from a "trusted" source....

Start by getting rid of ISA...

Google it. The Internet is full of information about these protocols (Well,
SSL, HTTPS)

Yes. Unless I'm mistaken, ISA server and server publishing are generally to
protect the server from attacks from a client. ISA server publishing makes
the target server available. Like other proxy servers, it inspects the data
for malicious content.
SSL server certs on the other hand are not exactly for attack protection,
but for authentication and encryption. SSL server certs confirm the
identity of the server and encrypt the data to try to prevent a man in the
middle attacker from reading the data stream. SSL does not inspect the data
for malicious content. They generally protect the client and not the
server. There are also SSL client certificates if you feel you need to
authenticate the client's identity and block unauthorized clients from
reaching the server.

Hey BJ,
Try this site:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/isa/default.mspx
or
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/traincert/virtuallab/isa.mspx
Both sites have many links, might be of some help or not.
L 8 R man....
