Subject: Voting Period begins - Ballot CSC-21v2: Signing Service Update

Purpose of the Ballot
This ballot updates the “Baseline Requirements for the Issuance and Management of Publicly‐Trusted Code Signing Certificates“ version 3.4 in order to clarify language regarding Signing Service and signing requests. The main goals of this ballot are to:

  1.  Clarify the Signing Service definition and the expected deployment model.
  2.  Remove requirements for signing request.
  3.  Change text so Signing Service is not categorized as a Delegated Third Party.
  4.  Not allow Signing Service to transport Private Key to Subscriber.
  5.  Ensure Network Security Requirements are applicable to Signing Service.
  6.  State audit requirements for Signing Service.
The following motion has been proposed by Bruce Morton of Entrust and endorsed by Tim Hollebeek of DigiCert and Ian McMillan of Microsoft.
