PKI: Alice And Bob Have Still Got A Job
PKI Continues Its Quiet Evolution To Invisible Relevance
by Paul Stamp
with Laura Koetzle, Benjamin Gray
Executive Summary (This is a document excerpt)
Technology pundits have long predicted huge growth in PKI, which has never materialized. However, recent rumors of PKI's demise have been greatly exaggerated. Vendors and experts have methodically chipped away at the barriers that have slowed PKI adoption and digital certificate use has grown steadily and evolved. Today, firms facilitate communication and business processes across industries with PKI. Millions of consumers verify merchants' identities with digital certificates whenever they buy online. End users also rely on PKI every day to ensure that hackers haven't tampered with important components of their PCs. So what's behind this hard-won success? Invisibility: Users don't know and don't have to care that they're using PKI.
