Do you have an alternative to the technology, because AFAICT, no PKI standards recover well from a breach of trust. Even the web of trust has issues; if a well-connected introducer is compromised, all descendent keys become suspect--which can potentially encompass all nodes in the graph. This can be as devestating as a CA compromise, and would likewise require a re-execution of a large number of signing ceremonies. > The flaw with CRLs and OCSP is that it tries to infer, from a lack > of a revocation, that a certificate has been properly issued and is valid. > Evidently, this turned out to be a logical fallacy with respect to > real world usage scenarios. Absent a trusted observer, there is no positive statement that can be issued by a CA that positively identifies only "valid" certificates. Given a trusted observer, why not make him the CA and be done with it? -- T
