Hi Jeremy, Can you clarify why you believe the signing key cannot be easily used? Is there a cryptographic limitation in what was disclosed?
Also, do you have plans for a more formal post-mortem? Since vulnerability management is usually an organization-wide process, it would be useful to understand why it failed here, in the event it could have carried over to other DigiCert infrastructure.
