Interviewer instructions

This question about authentication and security of Internet transactions assesses the quality of the Internet infrastructure with respect to measures of security. Establishments that cannot authenticate users nor provide and/or have the assurance of secure Internet transactions may be limited in how they use the Internet. The question is designed to determine whether this is in fact the case.

Authentication refers to the process of determining whether someone or something is, in fact, who or what they claim to be for the purpose of initiating a transaction or accessing information that may be behind security.

Security for Internet transactions make the transfer of confidential information such as passwords or credit card numbers over the Internet inaccessible to unauthorized users.
