PKI allows the secure exchange of information across the Internet, extranets, and intranets. In addition, PKI verifies and authenticates the validity of the user involved in an e-commerce transaction. It also allows logon to a domain using smart cards. This allows those protocols to be passed over the Internet using native Internet protocols. You can manage your VPN infrastructure using standard VPN-management tools included with Windows 2000.
Remote clients access the corporate intranet through a standard dial-up connection.
