Hi all,
I am in search of some help and suggestions about certificate revocation. The
problem is that, as far as I know, no rfc covers a possible online revocation
protocol to be used to revoke a certificate.
The model I am thinking of is request-response oriented and, depending on
the policy adopted by the corresponding CA, permits a user/router/etc... to
ask for revocation of a certificate. This can help environments where
certificates from different vendors are used and we want to be able to ask
for revocation without having to follow different procedures for different
CSP -- additional steps could/shall, depending on the policy adopted,
be taken to accomplish the revocation process.
Has my problem a solution yet ??? Or can I work on a proposal to be
submitted for comments and reviews ???
Looking forwards for comments.
