Summary 
The TLS Baseline Requirements currently state an OV certificate may contain 
either a DBA / Assumed Name or Legal Name. The EVGs and SBRs allow for the 
common format of "DBA (Legal Name)". This ballot aims to align the practices 
for OV certificates with this. 

While still allowing the inclusion of the sole DBA / Assumed Name, it will also 
allow for the "DBA (Legal Name)" format to be used, allowing CAs to align 
practices with the EVG and SBRs. 

The following motion has been proposed by Martijn Katerbarg (Sectigo) and 
endorsed by Clint Wilson (Apple) and Enrico Entschew (D-Trust). 

Motion Begins 
MODIFY the "Baseline Requirements for the Issuance and Management of 
Publicly-Trusted Certificates" ("Baseline Requirements") based on Version 2.0.7 
as specified in the following redline:
