I am looking for pointers to new products providing enterprise wide public key management and certifying authorities.  I have been looking at the Entrust product from Nortel which does provide a public key management server.  Also note that Microsoft and Nortel announced on Oct 17, 1994 that the Entrust technology would be incorporated into the new MS Exchange server. 

Personally, I am more inclined towards the public key certificate based authentication versus, say, the one-time passwords.  The reason is the improved ability to manage user identities, establish cross domain trust relationships, provide data encryption, and provide digital signature methodology, all integrated into one paradigm.  I would interested in any comments, challenges and pointers to other products and solutions.
