Abstract
The author considers what is meant by authentication in commercial use of the Internet, and the accompanying needs to authenticate the identity of an individual or a transaction. He suggests that it will always be difficult to ascertain the true identity of a person who uses the Internet for banking, which has consequences for evolving obligations and liabilities of the parties.
