For example, +https://csrc.nist.gov/pubs/sp/800/52/r2/final[NIST SP 800-52 Rev. 2] (ยง4.5.2) recommends using a trust store that contains only the CA certificates required for the intended communication scope, such as a private or enterprise CA. This reduces exposure to unintended or compromised CA certificates included in the default trust store. Review Comment: Very helpful! -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
