Abstract

The emergence of the Internet as a channel for business communications and transactions has created a market for a wide range of new products and services, but a number of barriers to full-scale exploitation remain. Chief among these barriers are the Internet‘s general lack of integrity and the difficulty of establishing trust between trading parties. The trust services now being offered by BT help to address the Internet‘s lack of integrity, and current research and development work is focused on evolving these services to allow trading parties to establish trust. High value certification services will provide mechanisms which allow users to go beyond proving who they are and enable them to prove relevant aspects of their character and ability. This paper outlines the ideas behind high value certification and presents an analysis of some of the key issues.
