Such a list performs a similar role for SSL Certificate +verfication that the root cache does for DNS servers. + +This list originally came from mod_ssl (where it was ca-bundle.crt. They +originally got their list from Netscape Communicator/Navigator), +but will be maintained separately. The maintainer will apply strict +criteria to suggestions for additions to this list (in concert with +the FreeBSD security officer). CAs wishing to be added will need +to assure the FreeBSD user community that their certification procedures +are sufficiently secure to render their certificates trustworthy. |
