Trust is a common aspiration in information and information technology (IT) security. Typical situations include those in which the intention is to sell security policies, measures, standards, and procedures as promoting security. Trust is mentioned in various lists of criteria and evaluation catalogs on secure IT products and systems as these catalogs aim to achieve reliability (access) and confidentiality (data). What is interesting here is that trust is not considered as a concept but instead in the colloquial sense (with no reflection of the ubiquity of the term) and is considered achievable with the help of technical procedures. Evaluation of IT products and systems and certification of digital signatures should, however, guarantee security that can be quantified and verified. This article explores three main theories in connection with information and IT security: Do evaluation, certification, and standardization serve in creating trust by reducing complexity in such a way that they can be understood and verified by the user
