Over the last couple of years, I have helped with the website and maintenance of the guideline documents. I’ve also helped run the Policy Review, Network Security, and Governance Reform workgroups. I am an attorney with several other relevant certifications, including MCSE, CISSP, and CISA.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>I have a passion for PKI and am committed to staying current in our ever-changing PKI industry. Because of this, I am deeply committed to seeing the CAB Forum succeed in a positive, constructive way. And, as a result of our bylaw revisions, I would like to see the Forum grow and become more relevant in the areas of code signing and client certificates. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>As Chair, I would be committed to following established procedures with fairness. I prefer that all voices be heard, and all sides considered, before moving forward with solutions to the challenges that we face. In summary, I believe the Forum is a place where people can express their opinions and seek solutions. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>It has been a great privilege to work with all of you, and I appreciate your support in my candidacy for Forum Chair.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Sincerely yours,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Ben Wilson<o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
