Certificate Authority Review Checklist

Requirements Trace

Copyright © 2005, 2007 by David E. Ross

Version 2Jul07-1.0.3

The following requirements in this Checklist do not trace to any WebTrust criteria:

§A: A.2.i, A.2.k, A.2.l

§B: B.2.f, B.2.m, B.2.n, B.2.o

§C: C.4.c, C.5.d, C.5.e, C.5.g, C.5.h, C.7.f, C.8.e

In the sequence of WebTrust §1.1 criteria, those criteria trace to the requirements in this Checklist as follows. Where a WebTrust criterion does not trace to any Checklist requirement, an explanation is given. No attempt has been made to create a trace between this Checklist and WebTrust §2 (Principle 2: Service Integrity) or §3 (Principle 3: CA Environmental Controls) criteria, which are generally redundant with §1.1 criteria. (Note: The WebTrust Program document has no subsections in §1 other than §1.1; §1 has no §1.2 or later subsections.)

27A.2.s, C.7.a, C.7.b, C.7.c, C.7.d, C.7.e
28None. Rekeying is generally covered by the issuing or renewing of user certificates.
29C.7.b, C.7.d, C.7.e
30A.2.d
31None. This is somewhat redundant with WebTrust criterion 32.

35A.2.y, A.3.j, B.2.j, B.2.k, C.8.f
36A.2.d, B.2.k
37None. This is redundant with WebTrust criterion 35
38None. This is a hardware issue. The checklist only addresses software certificates.
