many years ago at $my_old_telco_employer they supported web based call
monitoring. they required a client side cert purchased from verisign
specifically for the purpose. we had pages of documentation detailing
how to generate the request, and add the cert into your browser.

this was the first and only time i had ever used client certificates
from a CA vendor in such a manner.

mutual authentication... what a concept. is it really that rare?
