[Servercert-wg] Discussion Period Begins - Ballot SC-077: Update WebTrust Audit name in Section 8.4 and References

[Clint Wilson]

Purpose of Ballot

CPA Canada has separated the audit criteria which map to the Network and Certificate System Security Requirements (NCSSRs) from the audit criteria which map to the TLS Baseline Requirements (TBRs). As a result, the requirements in Section 8.4 are out of date for audits which use the updated/separated audit criteria. However, we also need to ensure the combined audit criteria are able to be used until fully deprecated by CPA Canada and/or Root Programs stop accepting them.

This ballot modifies Section 8.4 to allow for a CA to be audited against either:

WebTrust Principles and Criteria for Certification Authorities – SSL Baseline with Network Security; or
WebTrust Principles and Criteria for Certification Authorities – SSL Baseline AND WebTrust Principles and Criteria for Certification Authorities – Network Security
Motion

The following motion has been proposed by Clint Wilson (Apple) and endorsed by Dimitris Zacharopoulos (HARICA) and Trevoli Ponds-White (Amazon)
