  2. Certificate revocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Certificate_revocation

    Let's Revoke uses bit vectors of revocation statuses (called certificate revocation vectors, or CRVs) to allow large amounts of revocation statuses to be efficiently retrieved by clients. [4] CAs generate CRVs for their own certificates, with one CRV per expiration date. CRV maintenance for CAs is linear in the number of certificates issued ...

  3. Certificate revocation list - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Certificate_revocation_list

    In cryptography, a certificate revocation list (CRL) is "a list of digital certificates that have been revoked by the issuing certificate authority (CA) before their scheduled expiration date and should no longer be trusted".

  4. Online Certificate Status Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Online_Certificate_Status...

    The OCSP responder uses the certificate serial number to look up the revocation status of Alice's certificate. The OCSP responder looks in a CA database that Carol maintains. In this scenario, Carol's CA database is the only trusted location where a compromise to Alice's certificate would be recorded.

  5. Public key infrastructure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_key_infrastructure

    Without revocation, an attacker would be able to exploit such a compromised or mis-issued certificate until expiry. [15] Hence, revocation is an important part of a public key infrastructure. [16] Revocation is performed by the issuing certificate authority, which produces a cryptographically authenticated statement of revocation. [17]

  6. OpenSSL - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenSSL

    OpenSSL is a software library for applications that provide secure communications over computer networks against eavesdropping, and identify the party at the other end. It is widely used by Internet servers, including the majority of HTTPS websites. OpenSSL contains an open-source implementation of the SSL and TLS protocols.

  7. Certificate authority - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Certificate_authority

    Without revocation, an attacker would be able to exploit such a compromised or misissued certificate until expiry. [31] Hence, revocation is an important part of a public key infrastructure. [32] Revocation is performed by the issuing CA, which produces a cryptographically authenticated statement of revocation. [33]

  8. OCSP stapling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OCSP_stapling

    The only increased risk of OCSP stapling is that the notification of revocation for a certificate may be delayed until the last-signed OCSP response expires. As a result, clients continue to have verifiable assurance from the certificate authority that the certificate is presently valid (or was quite recently), but no longer need to ...

  9. PKCS 7 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PKCS_7

    A typical use of a PKCS #7 file would be to store certificates and/or certificate revocation lists (CRL). Here's an example of how to first download a certificate, then wrap it inside a PKCS #7 archive and then read from that archive:
