I got this in my Linux Today newsletter for today:
EBCVG: TEN THINGS I WISH THEY WARNED ME ABOUT PKI
"In this paper we look at a number of pratical organizational
issues that pure PKI suppliers often fail to mention..."
COMPLETE STORY:

My read of the actual article (which you can find directly at
http://www.ebcvg.com/articles.php?id=271 if you want to avoid getting
clicktracked) ... the actual article is much more scathing than this short
summary would indicate. I don't think many folks would even try to
implement PKI after reading this. So, as a rather lazy Linux admin I'm
compelled to ask: do others who have swallowed the PKI pill lived to tell
the story? Is it really this bad? What can be done better? Is anybody
trying to do it better?
