I've got to admire your optimism, Michael... Over the last 15 years, I've watched the telcos and financial institutions be put forward (by third parties, I hasten to add) as the prime candidates to own and operate - the "utility" PKI; - the "utility" IDPs; Trouble is, neither type of organisation seems to share the enthusiasm of those putting them forward for the role. In those cases, the obstacles seemed to be: 1 - liability 2 - the good old e-commerce concept of "friction"... It could just be that we're seeing an evolution here, and that the time for this model has arrived... but evolution is a slow process. R
