Digital certificate industry veterans Tim Callan and Jason Soroko explore the issues surrounding digital identity, PKI, and cryptographic connections in today's dynamic and evolving computing world. Best practices in digital certificates are continually under pressure from technology trends, new laws and regulations, cryptographic advances, and the evolution of our computing architectures to be more virtual, agile, ubiquitous, and cloud-based. Jason and Tim (and the occasional guest subject ...

2024 set in motion major changes for certificate lifespans and DCV. In this episode we discuss the Apple 47-day proposal, stepping down certificate term, public versus private CA use cases, DCV reuse periods, MPIC, WHOIS, and other topics.Tim Callan and Jason Soroko

In this 2024 lookback episode, we give an overview of the firestorm of Bugzilla incidents that we refer to as the Bugzilla Bloodbath. The Bugzilla Bloodbath affected actions around the Entrust distrust, delayed revocation reform, 47-day SSL certificate maximum term, linting, and more.Tim Callan and Jason Soroko

We talk with guest Sofia Celi of Brave Browser, who leads the IETF PQC standardization effort, about the process of setting standards for PQC-compatible digital certificates. We learn about expected timelines, hybrid strategies, the NIST PQC onramp's role, and more.Tim Callan and Jason Soroko

The old adage states that a monkey in front of a keyboard, given enough time, could randomly type the works of Shakespeare. Apparently, someone ran the numbers and said not so much. We break it down and explain why we're discussing this on a PKI podcast.Tim Callan and Jason Soroko

Tim has stepped into the position of vice-chair of the CA/Browse Forum, and Sectigo now holds five chair or vice-chair positions in that body. We explain how leadership is chosen, the offices Sectigo holds today, and some of our vision for CABF in the next two years.Tim Callan and Jason Soroko

We discuss how a potential break of Chrome from Google would affect the WebPKI. We look at product changes, resourcing, post-quantum cryptography (PQC), innovation, moonshot initiatives, and other public CAs.Tim Callan and Jason Soroko

A new White House initiative requires that federal agencies need to create plans to thwart BGP attacks. We discuss, including Resource PKI (RPKI) and Multi-Perspective Issuance Corroboration (MPIC).Tim Callan and Jason Soroko
  continue reading
 
Linters are essential tools for maintaining quality of certificate issuance. Public open-source linters are available to help CAs assure compliance. As a result, CAs have begun attributing gaps in coverage by public linters as the root cause for misissuance events. We explain why this is faulty reasoning.…

The PQC community likes to debate when crypto relevant quantum computers will be available, which is sometimes called "Q day." In this episode we explain how radically oversimplified this concept is and dive into the nuances of what a "cryptographically relevant quantum computer" really will be.Tim Callan and Jason Soroko

Apple recently floated a draft CABF ballot for commentary that steps down maximum term for SSL certificates starting next year and eventually landing at 45 days in 2027. We share the details.Tim Callan and Jason Soroko

Deliberate delay of mandatory revocations has plagued the WebPKI in 2024. A new proposed policy from Mozilla stands to eliminate most of this behavior. In this episode we go over the proposal and explain its potential consequences.Tim Callan and Jason Soroko

White hat researchers managed to take over WHOIS for the .mobi TLD. Among other things, this discovery foretells the death of WHOIS as a valid email source for Domain Control Validation (DCV).Tim Callan and Jason Soroko

In this episode we describe the LoRA protocol, which allows IoT devices to communicate securely without using a cellular network, and how it can be used for secret communications.Tim Callan and Jason Soroko
  continue reading
 
In this episode we discuss the dual nature of a public certificate as both a file and part of a holistic service that lasts until its expiration. We discuss revocation checking, CT logging, GAAP accounting, linters, certificate tracking tools, Certificate Lifecycle Management, standards bodies, post-quantum cryptography, and subscription models.…

Though it is the closest thing to an industry-standard API, there are still products and operating systems that don't support ACME. In this episode we explore what happens to these products once 90-day SSL certificates become the requirement.Tim Callan and Jason Soroko

One seldom discussed consequence of quantum computers and PQC is the move from cryptographic homogeneity to cryptographic heterogeneity, with multiple KEMs and DSAs eventually expected as ongoing standards. We examine the consequences of this change.Tim Callan and Jason Soroko
  continue reading
 
We introduce pkimetal, an open source project from Rob Stradling that allows CA to write to many popular linters with a single integration. We explain the importance and pitfalls of linters and how pkimetal improves linter implementation.Tim Callan and Jason Soroko

An enterprise SSL subscriber recently used a Temporary Restraining Order to prevent the proper revocation of misissued certificates. We explain what happened, why it's deeply problematic, and how the industry might consider responding.Tim Callan and Jason Soroko
  continue reading
 
NIST recently released PQC algorithmic standards in FIPS-203, FIPS-204, and FIPS-205 (ML-KEM, ML-DSA, and SLH-DSA). We describe what is necessary for enterprises to begin using these algorithms.Tim Callan and Jason Soroko
