The purpose of this paper is to describe what Public Key Architecture (PKI) is, and how it can help organizations and individuals during the enactment of electronic transactions.

The purpose of this paper is to describe what Public Key Architecture (PKI) is, and how it can help organizations and individuals during the enactment of electronic transactions (The GOOD), detail why governments worldwide have, or are, introducing legislation and guidelines covering information privacy and the operation of PKI facilities. Due to the nationality of the author, Australian regulations are drawn upon throughout this document (The BAD), and to show how with honest definition of business requirements, and careful architectural decisions, a way forward satisfying both the business requirements and the legalities (The UGLY)
