Good day,

consider slightly modified p. 16:

The technical content or format of the Certificate *doesn't comply with the applicable legislation of Subject's jursidiction or* presents an unacceptable risk to Application Software Suppliers or Relying Parties (e.g. the CA/Browser Forum might determine that a deprecated cryptographic/signature algorithm or key size presents an unacceptable risk and that such Certificates should be revoked and replaced by CAs within a given period of time).

Thanks,
M.D.

All,

Attached is a redlined Word doc containing sections 4.9.1.1 and 4.9.5 of the Baseline Requirements. To provide greater flexibility when revoking certificates, I am proposing that we remove the 24-hour revocation requirement from section 4.9.1.1 and replacing it with a criteria-based process found in section 4.9.5. Section 4.9.5 (Time within which CA Must Process the Revocation Request) would read:

The CA SHALL begin an investigation of the facts and circumstances related to a Certificate Problem Report or other revocation-related notice within one business day of receipt. After reviewing the facts and circumstances, the CA SHALL work with any entity reporting the Certificate Problem Report or other revocation-related notice to establish a date when the CA will revoke the Certificate or take whatever other appropriate action is warranted. The date selected by the CA SHOULD consider the following criteria:

1. The nature of the alleged problem (scope, context, severity, magnitude, risk of harm);

2. The consequences of revocation (direct and collateral impacts to Subscribers and Relying Parties);

3. The number of Certificate Problem Reports received about a particular Certificate or Subscriber;

4. The entity making the complaint (for example, a complaint from a law enforcement official that a Web site is engaged in illegal activities should carry more weight than a complaint from a consumer alleging that she didn’t receive the goods she ordered); and

5. Relevant legislation.
