+1 as well.   No one is going to lack for work in the months and years ahead. But we have to start somewhere.

It would be a mistake to consider even all _national_ authorities trustworthy.  Analytics systems will need to consider issuer chain as well as individual certificate reputation trustworthiness.  There are too many stories of bought passports.

With limited exceptions I don’t see issuing certificates for individual TN’s at all..at least not for the immediate future.

So you're trusting the folks issuing certificates to be perfectly reliable, and service providers never to use a cert for a number that's been ported away?

I would note that "freshness" is but one aspect of a certificate that you need OCSP for.  The far more common use in the WebPKI is when the CA simply screws up.

 

In any case, to recap the experience from the Web PKI, the trade-off space has basically the following shape:

1. Do a live query [draft-ietf-stir-certificates-ocsp]

2. Make something with a short lifetime

2.a. Mandatory OCSP stapling

2.b. Short-lived certificates [draft-peterson-stir-certificates-shortlived]

The trade-off is basically between the sender/signer having to do queries (to refresh OCSP or get a new cert) and recipient/verifier having to do queries (to fetch OCSP).  (2.a) is a bad deal unless you have some legacy need to use OCSP; otherwise it's just bloat relative to (2.b).

If you ask web people, you're likely to get a pretty strong preference for (2), i.e., putting the burden on the sender, because (a) it's more predictable and (b) it's offline with respect to call time, and thus much less performance sensitive.  The web started out with (1) and it has turned out to be totally unworkable, because the CAs can't operate OCSP servers that are good enough to avoid seriously degrading the performance of browsing experience.

The main push-back we get from server operators about (2) is that it requires outbound connections from web servers -- load and downtime never come up as issues.  Outbound connections shouldn't be an issue for STIR signers, since they're likely to be making outbound connections all the time anyway.  Even if not, it's a simple firewall rule to write to let out connections to your CA.

In reaction to the IESG review, and as well, to our own general sense that we're still not ready to mandate any particular direction, we ended up pulling the real-time status check of OCSP out of the last version of stir-certificates. Figuring out how we want to manage certificate freshness, especially in light of certificates assigned to telephone numbers, is probably the last bit about the core STIR work, before we go on to extensions and so forth, that we need to tackle.

 

I'd like to spend some meeting time talking about two approaches, as well as any better ideas anybody comes up with for this. The first is roughly what was in the stir-certificates document previously, which is now captured in:

 

https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-stir-certificates-ocsp-00

 

The other is an approach based on short-lived certificates, which would likely rely on ACME or something similar. I've mocked up a discussion draft for that:

 

https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-peterson-stir-certificates-shortlived-00

 

... though it is still fairly content-free at the moment. 

 

I think reviewing what we've done with stir-certs and these two approaches warrants some face-time discussion. Thoughts here on the list beforehand are welcome too.

 

Thanks,
