ll work instantly; in effect the browsers' developers determine which CAs are trusted third parties for the browsers' users. X.509 also includes standards for certificate revocation list (CRL) implementations, an often neglected aspect of PKI systems. The IETF-approved way of checking a certificate's validity is the Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP). Firefox 3 enables OCSP |

public key infrastructure

the authenticity of the binding between a public key and a user. Its decentralized grass roots trust model is an alternative to the centralized trust model of a public key infrastructure (PKI), which relies exclusively on a certificate authority (or a hierarchy of such). As with computer networks, there are many independent webs of trust, and any user (through their [[identity certifi |

is an identity certificate that is signed by its own creator. That is, the person that created the certificate also signed off on its legitimacy. In typical public key infrastructure (PKI) arrangements, that a particular public key certificate is valid (i.e., contains correct information) if attested by a digital signature from a certificate authority (CA).

path starts with the Subject certificate and proceeds through a number of intermediate certificates up to a trusted root certificate, typically issued by a trusted Certification Authority (CA). Path validation is necessary for a relying party to make an informed trust decision when presented with any certificate that is not already explicitly trusted. For example, in a hierarchical PKI |
