IdenTrust continues to work our customers in revoking/replacing ACES SSL 
certificates with these reported issues: 
- https for OCSP validation instead of http in AIA extension;
- Invalid “US Government” as o= in the SDN;
- Invalid OtherName in the SAN extension.
For those customers that have not replaced their certificates by September 15, 
2017, we will revoke their them.
