In reply to The Difference Between Root Certificate Authorities, Intermediates, and Resellers
Hi Andrew,
Regarding white label CAs. I assume these are normally operated by a root CA on behalf of a customer such as a reseller. I also assume that the risk of compliance issues are greatly reduced. I do understand that when you review the certificate subject that the viewer cannot tell it is a white label CA. Should we consider adding content to the certificate to address this issue? This could be done with a certificate policy OID and maybe a qualifier to provide more information. There is probably other ideas, but I am thinking that adding some content to the certificate is easy to implement and could be provided in all new white label CA certificates.
Thanks, Bruce.
