Abstract :
In Norway, BankID is the banking industry´s public-key infrastructure (PKI) of choice for authenticating Internet customers. But do BanklD´s differences from standard PKIs make it a riskier choice? This assessment, based on both publicly available information and usage experiences, addresses that question.
