Why the Georgian government is so deeply involved in PKI?

• Setting up and running the infrastructure is costly• No immediate revenue is guaranteed• So, we can’t wait for someone who will invest in PKI

Start-Up Costs

• The key players in Georgian private sectors are banks, insurance companies, oil importers, etc• They do not have immediate expertise about PKI• So, we are making a “Jump Start” of the system

No expertise in private sector

• For the Government it’s easier to enforce nation-wide standards• Establishing standards do not immediately mean that they will be implemented• So, the establisher has to introduce at least a “reference implementation”

Standards

What we have now

• Currently there are more than 200 000 ID cards issued• This means that we already have 200K certificates issued for online authentication and the same

number for the digital signature

Large number of ID Cards already issued

• The public sector already started offering ID card based log in to citizens• Introduction of digital signature services in Georgia got the immediate response from the private sector• Some largest Georgian banks already working to get digitally signed documents from their customers

and provide services based on them

The number of services employing electronic functions of ID card is rising rapidly
