25Not the first, but certainly a very public step
In 1997, Vice President Al Gore published Access
America, a report which outlined actions the
Federal government is taking to promote the
electronic delivery of services, and electronic
transactions between agencies and trading
partners, over open networks such as the
Internet. The report made it clear that
providing a proper security infrastructure was
essential for electronic transactions to flourish.
The Evolving Federal Public Key Infrastructure,
CIO (Department of the Treasury) Richard A.
Guida Final Draft 4.0, 5-21-2000
26What Government Agencies
- State
- U.S. Government
- Federal
- Department of Defense
- International
27State Governments
- Electronic / Digital Signature Law
- All 50 states have law allowing for the use of
digital signatures, most of which allow or
require PKI. - Mandate use of Digital Signatures in
inter-government communication and commerce - Permits use of Digital Signatures elsewhere
- 43 states have adopted the Uniform Computer
Information Transactions Act (UCITA) which
references PKI based digital signatures
28U.S. Government Federal
- Access Certificates for Electronic Commerce
(ACES) - General Services Administration contract schedule
for issuing Certificates - Potential ACES users SSA, EPA, and Dept of
Education - Three Schedule awardees ORC (Operational
Research Consultants), Digital Signature Trust,
ATT - Smart Access Common Identification
- GSA contract schedule for issuing PKI smart cards
- Federal PKI
- hosted by NIST
- At core of interoperability and cross
certification - Federal Bridge CA
29U.S. Department of Defense
- DoD Medium-Pilot Assurance PKI
- Sensitive, but unclassified material
- 50,000 certificates in use today
- Interim External Certificate Authorities (IECA)
- IECA program can be trusted by DoD applications
- Four IECA vendors ORC (Operational Research
Consultants), Digital Signature Trust, VeriSign,
General Dynamics - DoD Class 3 PKI
- CA keys in FIPS 140-1 Level 2 hardware tokens
- LRA and RA keys in FIPS 140-1 Level 2 smart cards
- Target DoD Class 4 PKI
- will require smart cards or other tokens for all
certificate holders - DoD Common Access Card
- Upgrade ID cards to PKI smart cards
30International Law
- 43 countries have law in place, in draft or are
actively investigating PKI based law for digital
signatures or e-commerce - German Digital Signature Law
- PKI based digital signatures
- Oldest and most well known
- United Nations Commission on International Trade
Law (UNCIRTL)
31Why? Because we must!
- Business-to-business and business-to-consumer
electronic commerce reached 43 billion and 8
billion respectively in 1998. Estimates predict
that by 2003, those totals will exceed 108
billion and 1.3 trillion respectively (Forrester
Research). This experience suggests that
electronic forms of authentication which are
accepted over the Internet and which include
the use of public key technology be generally
accepted as having sufficient legal foundation by
the transacting parties to allow e-commerce to
proceed and grow - In October 1998, Congress enacted the Government
Paperwork Elimination Act (GPEA, Public Law
105-277) requiring that when practicable, Federal
agencies by October 2003 accept forms
electronically with electronic signatures. - Federal agency efforts have focused on using
public key technology for intra-agency,
interagency, and agency to trading partner
transactions. The largest potential volume of
traffic, and the greatest prospects for service
delivery, involves transactions with the general
public. Recognizing this, and appreciating that
the best approach to use public key technology
with the public is to devise a PKI that all
agencies can collectively use for that purpose to
share the costs of a common infrastructure, the
General Services Administration began working in
1996 on an effort called Access Certificates for
Electronic Services (ACES).
32Conclusions
- The use of Public Key technology within
Government and business will continue to grow at
an astounding rate. - Public Key Infrastructures to provide and
maintain trust must expand to support the the
growth of this technology - Government is leading, and will continue to lead,
the expansion of PKI technology and service
