Public key certificates need to be revoked when they are compromised,
that is, when the associated private key is exposed to an
unauthorized entity. However, the revocation process is often
unreliable. An alternative to revocation is issuing a sequence of
certificates, each with a short validity period, and terminating the
sequence upon compromise. This memo proposes an Automated
Certificate Management Environment (ACME) extension to enable the
issuance of Short-Term, Automatically Renewed (STAR) X.509
certificates.
This document is a product of the Automated Certificate Management Environment Working Group of the IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard.
STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the Official
Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the
standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this
memo is unlimited.
