PKI and Directory
Network Strategy Report, PKI Architecture, July 1997: (Quoted after: S. Zeber, X.500 Directory Services and PKI issues, http://nra.nacosa.nato.int/pki/hdocs/pkiahwg30/index.htm)
“ ... Customers should always consider PKI a directory-enabled set of services and infrastructure. Without directory services, PKI will be exponentially harder to implement and manage. Consequently, customers should’t deploy PKI widely without an accompanying directory plan”
