| Abstract: | A wide spectrum of certi?cate revocation mechanisms is currently in use. A number of them have been proposed by standardisation
bodies, while some others have originated from academic or private institutions. What is still missing is a systematic and robust framework for the sound evaluation of these mechanisms. We present a mechanism-neutral framework for the evaluation of certi?cate status information (CSI) mechanisms. These mechanisms collect, process and distribute CSI. A detailed demonstration of its exploitation is also provided. The demonstration is mainly based on the evaluation of Certi?cate Revocation Lists, as well as of the Online Certi?cate Status Protocol. Other well-known CSI mechanisms are also mentioned for completeness. |
