dhs doesn't care. law enforcement on thewhole is prinicipaly involved after you lose money, not before. regulatory agencies set standards and occasionaly enforce their implementation.
you see matt, i've never looked at this as a purely tech issue with the underlying protocols... but you need some way for the avg user to really be able to tell.. that the site he's on, is the one he should be on.. in a similar vein.. you need to be able to do the same thing from the server side as well...
Proving identity means demonstrating uniqueness... the only reliable methods from demonstrating uniqueness and therefore identity on the internet revolve around strong crypto.

SSL solves it adequately as far as I'm concerned. IPsec could make it more ubiquitous. If you're asking "how can we keep people from being gullible", then I'm afraid there really isn't a foolproof solution -- you know what they say about the ingenuity of fools.
