In an a priori anonymous digitized world, notions such as authenticity and trust are of paramount importance. Unfortunately, the exact meaning of such key terms has never been consistently defined, and they are often used in an ambiguous way. In this paper, we introduce a new model for representing these fundamental notions in the context of rating systems in e-business applications as well as for public-key certification. When applied to existing systems, its goal is to shed light on the implicit assumptions actually made by the participants. As an example, we show that for the rating system used in eBay, there are a number of such implicit assumptions on which the drawn conclusions depend. A second example is PGP, where it turns out that the meaning of the (syntactically well-defined) certificates is not entirely clear.
