<p>
</p>
<h3><a name="p1.2" id="p1.2">1.2. Document name and identification</a></h3>

</p>
<h3><a name="p1.3" id="p1.3">1.3. PKI participants</a></h3>
<p>
The CA is legally operated by CAcert Incorporated,
an Association registered in 2002 in
New South Wales, Australia,
on behalf of the wider Community of Members of CAcert.
The Association details are at the
<a href="http://wiki.cacert.org/wiki/CAcertIncorporated">CAcert wiki</a>.
</p>
<p>
CAcert is a Community formed of Members who agree to the
<a href="http://www.cacert.org/policy/CAcertCommunityAgreement.php">
CAcert Community Agreement</a>.
The CA is technically operated by the Community,
under the direction of the Board of CAcert Incorporated.
(The Members of the Community are not to be confused
with the <i>Association Members</i>, which latter are
not referred to anywhere in this CPS.)
</p>
<h4><a name="p1.3.1" id="p1.3.1">1.3.1. Certification authorities</a></h4>
<p>
CAcert does not issue certificates to external
intermediate CAs under the present CPS.
</p>
<h4><a name="p1.3.2" id="p1.3.2">1.3.2. Registration authorities</a></h4>
<p>
Registration Authorities (RAs) are controlled under Assurance Policy
(<a href="http://www.cacert.org/policy/AssurancePolicy.php">COD13</a>).
</p>
<h4><a name="p1.3.3" id="p1.3.3">1.3.3. Subscribers</a></h4>
<p>
CAcert issues certificates to Members only.
Such Members then become Subscribers.
</p>
<h4><a name="p1.3.4" id="p1.3.4">1.3.4. Relying parties</a></h4>
<p>
A relying party is a Member,
having agreed to the
CAcert Community Agreement
(<a href="http://www.cacert.org/policy/CAcertCommunityAgreement.php">COD9</a>),
who, in the act of using a CAcert certificate,
makes a decision on the basis of that certificate.
</p>
<h4><a name="p1.3.5" id="p1.3.5">1.3.5. Other participants</a></h4>
<p>
<b>Member.</b>
Membership of the Community is as defined in the
<a href="http://www.cacert.org/policy/CAcertCommunityAgreement.php">COD9</a>.
Only Members may RELY or may become Subscribers.
Membership is free.
</p>
<p>
<b>Arbitrator.</b>
A senior and experienced Member of the CAcert Community
who resolves disputes between Members, including ones
of certificate reliance, under
Dispute Resolution Policy
(<a href="http://www.cacert.org/policy/DisputeResolutionPolicy.php">COD7</a>).
</p>
<p>
<b>Vendor.</b>
Software suppliers who integrate the root certificates of CAcert
into their software also assume a proxy role of Relying Parties,
and are subject to another licence.
<span class="q">
At the time of writing, the
"3rd Party Vendor - Disclaimer and Licence"
is being worked upon, but is neither approved nor offered.
</span>
</p>
<p>
<b>Non-Related Persons</b> (NRPs).
These are users of browsers and similar software who are
unaware of the CAcert certificates they may use, and
are unaware of the ramifications of usage.
Their relationship with CAcert
is described by the
Non-related Persons - Disclaimer and Licence
(<a href="http://www.cacert.org/policy/NRPDisclaimerAndLicence.php">COD4</a>).
No other rights nor relationship is implied or offered.
</p>
<h3><a name="p1.4" id="p1.4">1.4. Certificate usage</a></h3>
<p>CAcert serves as issuer of certificates for
individuals, businesses, governments, charities,
associations, churches, schools,
non-governmental organisations or other groups.
CAcert certificates are intended for low-cost
community applications especially where volunteers can
become Assurers and help CAcert to help the Community.
</p>
<p>
Types of certificates and their appropriate and
corresponding applications are defined in
<a href="#p1.4.1">§1.4.1</a>.
Prohibited applications are defined in <a href="#p1.4.2">§1.4.2</a>.
Specialist uses may be agreed by contract or within
a specific environment, as described in
<a href="#p1.4.4">§1.4.4</a>.
Note also the
unreliable applications in
<a href="#p1.4.3">§1.4.3</a>
and risks, liabilities and obligations in
<a href="#p9">§9</a>.

</center>
<h4><a name="p1.4.1" id="p1.4.1">1.4.1. Appropriate certificate uses</a></h4>
<p>
General uses.
</p>
<ul><li>
CAcert server certificates can be used to enable encryption
protection in web servers.
Suitable applications include webmail and chat forums.
</li><li>
CAcert server certificates can be used to enable encryption
in SSL/TLS links in embedded protocols such as mail servers
and IM-servers.
</li><li>
CAcert client certificates can be used to enable encryption
protection in email clients.
(See <a href="#p1.4.3">§1.4.3</a> for caveat on signatures.)
</li><li>
CAcert client certificates can be used to replace password-based
authentication to web servers.
</li><li>
OpenPGP keys with CAcert signatures can be used
to encrypt and sign files and emails,
using software compatible with OpenPGP.
</li><li>
CAcert client certificates can be used in web-based
authentication applications.
</li><li>
CAcert code signing certificates can be used to sign code
for distribution to other people.
</li><li>
Time stamping can be used to attach a time record
to a digital document.
</li></ul>
<h4><a name="p1.4.2" id="p1.4.2">1.4.2. Prohibited certificate uses</a></h4>
<p>
CAcert certificates are not designed, intended, or authorised for
the following applications:
</p>
<ul><li>
Use or resale as control equipment in hazardous circumstances
or for uses requiring fail-safe performance such as the operation
of nuclear facilities, aircraft navigation or communication systems,
air traffic control systems, or weapons control systems,
where failure could lead directly to death, personal injury,
or severe environmental damage.
</li></ul>
<h4><a name="p1.4.3" id="p1.4.3">1.4.3. Unreliable Applications</a></h4>
<p>
CAcert certificates are not designed nor intended for use in
the following applications, and may not be reliable enough
for these applications:
</p>
<ul><li>
<b>Signing within Protocols.</b>
Digital signatures made by CAcert certificates carry
<u>NO default legal or human meaning</u>.
See <a href="#p9.15.1">§9.15.1</a>.
Especially, protocols such as S/MIME commonly will automatically
apply digital signatures as part of their protocol needs.
The purpose of the cryptographic signature in S/MIME
and similar protocols is limited by default to strictly
protocol security purposes:
to provide some confirmation that a familiar certificate
is in use, to enable encryption, and to ensure the integrity
of the email in transit.
</li><li>
<b>Non-repudiation applications.</b>
Non-repudiation is not to be implied from use of
CAcert certificates. Rather, certificates may
provide support or evidence of actions, but that
evidence is testable in any dispute.
</li><li>
<b>Ecommerce applications.</b>
Financial transactions or payments or valuable e-commerce.
</li><li>
Use of anonymous (Class 1 or Member SubRoot) certificates
in any application that requires or expects identity.
</li></ul>

<h4><a name="p1.4.4" id="p1.4.4">1.4.4. Limited certificate uses</a></h4>
<p>
By contract or within a specific environment
(e.g. internal to a company),
CAcert Members are permitted to use Certificates
for higher security, customised or experimental applications.
Any such usage, however, is limited to such entities
and these entities take on the whole responsible for
any harm or liability caused by such usage.
</p>
<p>
<b>Digital signing applications.</b>
CAcert client certificates
may be used by Assured Members in
applications that provide or support the human signing of documents
(known here as "digital signing").
This must be part of a wider framework and set of rules.
Usage and reliance
must be documented either under a separate CAcert digital signing
policy or other external regime agreed by the parties.
</p>
<h4><a name="p1.4.5" id="p1.4.5">1.4.5. Roots and Names</a></h4>
<p>
<b>Named Certificates.</b>
Assured Members may be issued certificates
with their verified names in the certificate. In this role, CAcert
operates and supports a network of Assurers who verify the
identity of the Members.
All Names are verified, either by Assurance or another defined
method under policy (c.f. Organisations).
</p>
<p>
<b>Anonymous Certificates.</b>
Members can be issued certificates that are anonymous,
which is defined as the certificate with no Name included,
or a shared name such as "Community Member".
These may be considered to be somewhere between Named certificates
and self-signed certificates. They have serial numbers in them
which is ultimately traceable via dispute to a Member, but
reliance is undefined.
In this role, CAcert provides the
infrastructure, saving the Members from managing a difficult
and messy process in order to get manufactured certificates.
</p>
<p>
<b>Psuedonymous Certificates.</b>
Note that CAcert does not currently issue pseudonymous certificates,
being those with a name chosen by the Member and not verifiable
according to documents.
</p>
<p>
<b>Advanced Certificates.</b>
Members who are as yet unassured are not permitted to create
advanced forms such as wildcard or subjectAltName
certificates.
</p>
<p>
<b> Roots.</b>
The <span class="q"> (new) </span> CAcert root layout is as below.
These roots are pending Audit,
and will be submitted to vendors via the (Top-level) Root.
</p>
<ul><li>
<b>(Top-level) Root.</b>
Used to sign on-line CAcert SubRoots only.
This Root is kept offline.
</li><li>
<b>Member SubRoot.</b>
For Community Members who are new and unassured (some restrictions exist).
Reliance is undefined.
(Replacement for the Class 1 root, matches "Domain Validation" type.)
</li><li>
<b>Assured SubRoot.</b>
Only available for Assured individual Members,
intended to sign certificates with Names.
Suitable for Reliance under this and other policies.
Approximates the type known as Individual Validation.
</li><li>
<b>Organisation SubRoot.</b>
Only available for Assured Organisation Members.
Suitable for Reliance under this and other policies.
Approximates the type known as Organisational Validation.

Each Member's Name (<tt>CN=</tt> field)
is assured under the Assurance Policy (<a href="http://www.cacert.org/policy/AssurancePolicy.php">COD13</a>)
or subsidiary policies (such as Organisation Assurance Policy).
Refer to those documents for meanings and variations.
</p>
<p>

</p>
<h4><a name="p3.1.4" id="p3.1.4">3.1.4. Rules for interpreting various name forms</a></h4>
<p>
Interpretation of Names is controlled by the Assurance Policy,
is administered by means of the Member's account,
and is subject to change by the Arbitrator.
Changes to the interpretation by means of Arbitration
should be expected as fraud (e.g., phishing)
may move too quickly for policies to fully document rules.
</p>
<h4><a name="p3.1.5" id="p3.1.5">3.1.5. Uniqueness of names</a></h4>
<p>
Uniqueness of Names within certificates is not guaranteed.
Each certificate has a unique serial number which maps
to a unique account, and thus maps to a unique Member.
See the Assurance Statement within Assurance Policy
(<a href="http://www.cacert.org/policy/AssurancePolicy.php">COD13</a>).

<h4><a name="p3.1.7" id="p3.1.7">3.1.7. International Domain Names</a></h4>
<p>
Certificates containing International Domain Names, being those containing a
ACE prefix (<a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3490#section-5">RFC3490
Section 5</a>), will only be issued to domains satisfying one or more
of the following conditions:
<ul>
<li>The Top Level Domain (TLD) Registrar associated with the domain has a policy
that has taken measures to prevent two homographic domains being registered to
different entities down to an accepted level.
</li>
<li>Domains contain only code points from a single unicode character script,
excluding the "Common" script, with the additionally allowed numberic
characters [0-9], and an ACSII hyphen '-'.
</li>
</ul>
</p>
<p>Email address containing International Domain Names in the domain portion of
the email address will also be required to satisfy one of the above conditions.

<h3><a name="p3.2" id="p3.2">3.2. Initial Identity Verification</a></h3>
<p>
Identity verification is controlled by the
<a href="http://svn.cacert.org/CAcert/Policies/AssurancePolicy.html">
Assurance Policy</a> (<a href="http://www.cacert.org/policy/AssurancePolicy.php">COD13</a>).
The reader is refered to the Assurance Policy,
the following is representative and brief only.
</p>
<h4><a name="p3.2.1" id="p3.2.1">3.2.1. Method to prove possession of private key</a></h4>
<p>
CAcert uses industry-standard techniques to
prove the possession of the private key.
</p>
<p>
For X.509 server certificates,
the stale digital signature of the CSR is verified.
For X.509 client certificates for "Netscape" browsers,
SPKAC uses a challenge-response protocol
to check the private key dynamically.
For X.509 client certificates for "explorer" browsers,
ActiveX uses a challenge-response protocol
to check the private key dynamically.
</p>
<h4><a name="p3.2.2" id="p3.2.2">3.2.2. Authentication of Individual Identity</a></h4>
<p>
<b>Agreement.</b>
An Internet user becomes a Member by agreeing to the
CAcert Community Agreement
(<a href="http://www.cacert.org/policy/CAcertCommunityAgreement.php">COD9</a>)
and registering an account on the online website.
During the registration process Members are asked to
supply information about themselves:
</p>
<ul>
<li>A valid working email.
</li>
<li>Full Name and Date of Birth such as is
found on Identity documents.
</li>
<li>Personal Questions used only for Password Retrieval.</li>
</ul>
<p>
The online account establishes the method of authentication
for all service requests such as certificates.
</p>
<p>
<b>Assurance.</b>
Each Member is assured according to Assurance Policy
(<a href="http://www.cacert.org/policy/AssurancePolicy.php">COD13</a>).

<b>Certificates.</b>
Based on the total number of Assurance Points
that a Member (Name) has, the Member
can get different levels of certificates.
See <a href="#p1.4.5">§1.4.5</a>.
See Table 3.2.b.
When Members have 50 or more points, they
become <i>Assured Members</i> and may then request

<h4><a name="p3.2.3" id="p3.2.3">3.2.3. Authentication of organization identity</a></h4>
<p>
Verification of organisations is delegated by
the Assurance Policy to the
Organisation Assurance Policy
(<a href="http://www.cacert.org/policy/OrganisationAssurancePolicy.php">COD11</a>).
The reader is refered to the Organisation Assurance Policy,
the following is representative and brief only.
</p>
<p>
Organisations present special challenges.
The Assurance process for Organisations is
intended to permit the organisational Name to
appear in certificates.
The process relies heavily on the Individual
process described above.
</p>
<p>
Organisation Assurance achieves the standard
stated in the OAP, briefly presented here:
</p>
<ol type="a"><li>
the organisation exists,
</li><li>
the organisation name is correct and consistent,
</li><li>
signing rights: requestor can sign on behalf of the organisation, and
</li><li>
the organisation has agreed to the terms of the
CAcert Community Agreement
(<a href="http://www.cacert.org/policy/CAcertCommunityAgreement.php">COD9</a>),
and is therefore subject to Arbitration.
</li></ol>
<ul class="error">
<li> As of the current time of writing, OA lacks critical documentation and there are bugs identified with no response.</li>
<li> <a href="http://wiki.cacert.org/wiki/PolicyDrafts/OrganisationAssurance">documented bugs</a>. </li>
<li> Therefore Organisations will not participate in the current audit cycle of roots. </li>
<li> See <a href="http://wiki.cacert.org/wiki/OrganisationAssurance">wiki</a> for any progress on this. </li>
</ul>
<h4><a name="p3.2.4" id="p3.2.4">3.2.4. Non-verified subscriber information</a></h4>
<p>
All information in the certificate is verified,
see Relying Party Statement, §4.5.2.
</p>
<h4><a name="p3.2.5" id="p3.2.5">3.2.5. Validation of authority</a></h4>
<p>
The authorisation to obtain a certificate is established as follows:
</p>
<p>
<b>Addresses.</b>
The member claims authority over a domain or email address
when adding the address, <a href="#p4.1.2">§4.1.2</a>.
(Control is tested by means described in <a href="#p4.2.2">§4.2.2</a>.)
</p>
<p>
<b>Individuals.</b>
The authority to participate as a Member is established
by the CAcert Community Agreement
(<a href="http://www.cacert.org/policy/CAcertCommunityAgreement.php">COD9</a>).
Assurances are requested by means of the signed CAP form.
</p>
<p>
<b>Organisations.</b>
The authority for Organisation Assurance is established
in the COAP form, as signed by an authorised representative
of the organisation.
The authority for the
Organisation Administrator
(O-Admin) is also established on the
COAP form.
See Organisation Assurance Policy.
</p>
<h4><a name="p3.2.6" id="p3.2.6">3.2.6. Criteria for interoperation</a></h4>
<p>
CAcert does not currently issue certificates to subordinate CAs
or other PKIs.
Other CAs may become Members, and are then subject to the
same reliance provisions as all Members.
</p>
<h3><a name="p3.3" id="p3.3">3.3. Re-key Requests</a></h3>
<p>
Via the Member's account.
</p>
<h3><a name="p3.4" id="p3.4">3.4. Revocations Requests</a></h3>
<p>
Via the Member's account.
In the event that the Member has lost the password,
or similar, the Member emails the support team who
either work through the lost-password questions
process or file a dispute.
</p>
<!-- *************************************************************** -->
<h2><a name="p4" id="p4">4. CERTIFICATE LIFE-CYCLE OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENTS</a></h2>
<p>
The general life-cycle for a new certificate for an Individual Member is:
<ol><li>
Member adds claim to an address (domain/email).
</li><li>
System probes address for control.
</li><li>
Member creates key pair.
</li><li>
Member submits CSR with desired options (Anonymous Certificate, SSO, Root Certificate) .
</li><li>
System validates and accepts CSR based on
known information: claims, assurance, controls, technicalities.
</li><li>
System signs certificate.
</li><li>
System makes signed certificate available to Member.
</li><li>
Member accepts certificate.
</li></ol>
</p>
<p>
(Some steps are not applicable, such as anonymous certificates.)
</p>
<h3><a name="p4.1" id="p4.1">4.1. Certificate Application</a></h3>
<h4><a name="p4.1.1" id="p4.1.1">4.1.1. Who can submit a certificate application</a></h4>
<p>
Members may submit certificate applications.
On issuance of certificates, Members become Subscribers.
</p>
<h4><a name="p4.1.2" id="p4.1.2">4.1.2. Adding Addresses</a></h4>
<p>
The Member can claim ownership or authorised control of
a domain or email address on the online system.
This is a necessary step towards issuing a certificate.
There are these controls:
<ul><li>
The claim of ownership or control is legally significant
and may be referred to dispute resolution.
</li><li>
Each unique address can be handled by one account only.
</li><li>
When the Member makes the claim,
the certificate application system automatically initiates the
check of control, as below.
</li></ul>
</p>
<h4><a name="p4.1.3" id="p4.1.3">4.1.3. Preparing CSR </a></h4>
<p>
Members generate their own key-pairs.
The CAcert Community Agreement
(<a href="http://www.cacert.org/policy/CAcertCommunityAgreement.php">COD9</a>)
obliges the Member as responsible for security.
See CCA2.5, §9.6.
</p>
<p>
The Certificate Signing Request (CSR) is prepared by the
Member for presentation to the automated system.
</p>
<h3><a name="p4.2" id="p4.2">4.2. Certificate application processing</a></h3>
<!-- states what a CA does on receipt of the request -->
<p>
The CA's certificate application process is completely automated.
Requests, approvals and rejections are handled by the website system.
Each application should be processed in less than a minute.
</p>
<p>
Where certificates are requested for more than one
purpose, the requirements for each purpose must be
fulfilled.
</p>
<!-- all sub headings in 4.2 are local, not from Chokhani. -->
<h4><a name="p4.2.1" id="p4.2.1">4.2.1. Authentication </a></h4>
<p>
The Member logs in to her account on the CAcert website
and thereby authenticates herself with username
and passphrase or with her CAcert client-side digital certificate.
</p>
<h4><a name="p4.2.2" id="p4.2.2">4.2.2. Verifying Control</a></h4>
<p>
In principle, at least two controls are placed on each address.
</p>
<p>
<b><a name="ping">Email-Ping</a>.</b>
Email addresses are verified by means of an
<i><a name="ping">Email-Ping test</a></i>:
</p>
<ul><li>
The system generates a cookie
(a random, hard-to-guess code)
and formats it as a string.
</li><li>
The system sends the cookie
to the Member in an email.
</li><li>
Once the Member receives the email,
she enters the cookie into the website.
</li><li>
The entry of the code verifies
control of that email account.
</li></ul>
<p>
<b><a name="email">Email Control</a>.</b>
Email addresses for client certificates are verified by passing the
following checks:
</p>
<ol>
<li>An Email-ping test
is done on the email address.
</li>
<li>The Member must have signed a CAP form or equivalent,
and been awarded at least one Assurance point.
</li>
</ol>
<p>
<b><a name="domain">Domain Control</a>.</b>
Domains addresses for server certificates are verified by passing two of the
following checks:
</p>
<ol> <li>
An Email-ping test
is done on an email address chosen from <i>whois</i>
or interpolated from the domain name.
</li> <li>
The system generates a cookie
which is then placed in DNS
by the Member.
</li> <li>
The system generates a cookie
which is then placed in HTTP headers or a text file on the website
by the Member.
</li> <li>
Statement by at least 2 Assurers about
ownership/control of the domain name.
</li> <li>
The system generates a cookie
which is then placed in whois registry information
by the Member.
</li> </ol>
<p>
Notes.
<ul><li>
Other methods can be added from time to time by CAcert.
</li><li>
Static cookies should remain for the duration of a certificate
for occasional re-testing.
</li><li>
Dynamic tests can be repeated at a later time of CAcert's choosing.
</li><li>
Domain control checks may be extended to apply to email control
in the future.
</li></ul>
</p>
<ul class="q">
<li> As of the time of writing, only a singular Email-ping is implemented in the technical system. </li>
<li> A further approved check is the 1 pt Assurance. </li>
<li> Practically, this would mean that certificates can only be issued under Audit Roots to Members with 1 point. </li>
<li> Criteria DRC C.7.f, A.2.q, A.2.i indicate registry whois reading. Also A.2.h. </li>
<li> Current view is that this will be resolved in BirdShack. </li>
</ul>
<h4><a name="p4.2.3" id="p4.2.3">4.2.3. Options Available</a></h4>
<p>
The Member has options available:
</p>
<ul>
<li>Each Email address that is verified
is available for Client Certificates.
</li>
<li>Each Domain address that is verified
is available for Server Certificates.
</li>
<li>If the Member is unassured then only the Member SubRoot is available.
</li>
<li>If the Member is Assured then both Assured Member and Member SubRoots
are available.
</li>
<li>If a Name is Assured then it may be
put in a client certificate or an OpenPGP signature.
</li>
</ul>
<h4><a name="p4.2.4" id="p4.2.4">4.2.4. Client Certificate Procedures</a></h4>
<p>
For an individual client certificate, the following is required.
<ul>
<li>The email address is claimed and added. </li>
<li>The email address is ping-tested. </li>
<li>For the Member Subroot, the Member must have
at least one point of Assurance and have signed a CAP form.</li>
<li>For the Assured Subroot, the Member must have
at least fifty points of Assurance. </li>
<li>To include a Name, the Name must be assured to at least fifty points. </li>
</ul>
</p>
<h4><a name="p4.2.5" id="p4.2.5">4.2.5. Server Certificate Procedures</a></h4>
<p>
For a server certificate, the following is required:
<ul>
<li>The domain is claimed and added. </li>
<li>The domain is checked twice as above. </li>
<li>For the Member SubRoot, the Member must have
at least one point of Assurance and have signed a CAP form.</li>
<li>For the Assured SubRoot, the Member must have
at least fifty points of Assurance. </li>
</ul>
</p>
<h4><a name="p4.2.6" id="p4.2.6">4.2.6. Code-signing Certificate Procedures</a></h4>
<p>
Code-signing certificates are made available to Assurers only.
They are processed in a similar manner to client certificates.
</p>
<h4><a name="p4.2.7" id="p4.2.7">4.2.7. Organisation Domain Verification</a></h4>
<p>
Organisation Domains are handled under the Organisation Assurance Policy
and the Organisation Handbook.
</p>
<ul class="q">
<li> As of time of writing, there is no Handbook for Organisation Assurers or for the Organisation, and the policy needs rework; so (audit) roots will not have OA certs .... </li>

<h4><a name="p4.3.1" id="p4.3.1">4.3.1. CA actions during certificate issuance</a></h4>
<p>
<b>Key Sizes.</b>
Members may request keys of any size permitted by the key algorithm.
Many older hardware devices require small keys.
</p>
<p>
<b>Algorithms.</b>
CAcert currently only supports the RSA algorithm for X.509 keys.
X.509 signing uses the SHA-1 message digest algorithm.
OpenPGP Signing uses RSA signing over RSA and DSA keys.
</p>
<p>
<b>Process for Certificates:</b>
All details in each certificate are verified
by the website issuance system.
Issuance is based on a 'template' system that selects
profiles for certificate lifetime, size, algorithm.
</p>
<ol><li>
The CSR is verified.
</li><li>
Data is extracted from CSR and verified:
<ul>
<li> Name §3.1, </li>
<li> Email address <a href="#p4.2.2">§4.2.2</a>, </li>
<li> Domain address <a href="#p4.2.2">§4.2.2</a>. </li>
</ul>
</li><li>
Certificate is generated from template.
</li><li>
Data is copied from CSR.
</li><li>
Certificate is signed.
</li><li>
Certificate is stored as well as mailed.
</li></ol>
<p>
<b>Process for OpenPGP key signatures:</b>
All details in each Sub-ID are verified
by the website issuance system.
Issuance is based on the configuration that selects
the profile for signature lifetime, size,
algorithm following the process:
</p>
<ol><li>
The public key is verified.
</li><li>
Data is extracted from the key and verified (Name, Emails).
Only the combinations of data in Table 4.3.1 are permitted.
</li><li>
OpenPGP Key Signature is generated.
</li><li>
Key Signature is applied to the key.
</li><li>
The signed key is stored as well as mailed.
</li></ol>

<h5>4.5.2.b Who may rely</h5>
<p>
<b>Members may rely.</b>
Relying parties are Members,
and as such are bound by this CPS and the
CAcert Community Agreement
(<a href="http://www.cacert.org/policy/CAcertCommunityAgreement.php">COD9</a>).
The licence and permission to rely is not assignable.
</p>
<p>
<b>Suppliers of Software.</b>
CAcert roots may be distributed in software,
and those providers may
enter into agreement with CAcert by means of the
Third Party Vendor - Disclaimer and Licence
(wip).
This licence brings the supplier in to the Community
to the extent that <span class="q"> ...WIP comment:</span>
they agree to dispute resolution
within CAcert's forum.
</p>
<ul class="q">
<li> Just exactly what the 3PV-DaL says is unclear.</li>
<li> The document itself is more a collection of ideas.</li>
</ul>
<p>
<b>NRPs may not rely.</b>
If not related to CAcert by means of an agreement
that binds the parties to dispute resolution within CAcert's forum,
a person is a Non-Related-Person (NRP).
An NRP is not permitted to rely and is not a Relying Party.
For more details, see the
NRP - Disclaimer and Licence (<a href="http://www.cacert.org/policy/NRPDisclaimerAndLicence.php">COD4</a>).
</p>
<h5>4.5.2.c The Act of Reliance </h5>
<p>
<b>Decision making.</b>
Reliance means taking a decision that is in part or in whole
based on the information in the certificate.
A Relying Party may incorporate
the information in the certificate,
and the implied information such as Membership,
into her decision-making.
In making a decision,
a Relying Party should also:
</p>
<ul><li>
include her own overall risk equation,
</li><li>
include the general limitations of the Assurance process,
certificates, and wider security considerations,
</li><li>
make additional checks to provide more information,
</li><li>
consider any wider agreement with the other Member, and
</li><li>
use an appropriate protocol or custom of reliance (below).
</li></ul>
<p>
<b>Examining the Certificate.</b>
A Relying Party must make her own decision in using
each certificate. She must examine the certificate,
a process called <i>validation</i>.
Certificate-related information includes,
but is not limited to:
</p>
<ul><li>
Name,
</li><li>
expiry time of certificate,
</li><li>
current certificate revocation list (CRL),
</li><li>
certificate chain and
the validity check of the certificates in the chain,
</li><li>
issuer of certificate (CAcert),
</li><li>
SubRoot is intended for reliance (Assured, Organisation and Class 3)
</li><li>
purpose of certificate.
</li></ul>
<p>
<b>Keeping Records.</b>
Records should be kept, appropriate to the import of the decision.
The certificate should be preserved.
This should include sufficient
evidence to establish who the parties are
(especially, the certificate relied upon),
to establish the transaction in question,
and to establish the wider agreement that
defines the act.
</p>
<p>
<b>Wider Protocol.</b>
In principle, reliance will be part of a wider protocol
(customary method in reaching and preserving agreement)
that presents and preserves sufficient of the evidence
for dispute resolution under CAcert's forum of Arbitration.
The protocol should be agreed amongst the parties,
and tuned to the needs.
This CPS does not define any such protocol.
In the absence of such a protocol, reliance will be weakened;
a dispute without sufficient evidence may be dismissed by an Arbitrator.
</p>
<p>
<b>As Compared to Usage</b>.
Reliance goes beyond Usage. The latter is limited to
letting the software act as the total and only Validation
Authority. When relying, the Member also augments
the algorithmic processing of the software with her own
checks of the business, technical and certificate aspect.
</p>
<h5>4.5.2.d Risks and Limitations of Reliance </h5>
<p>
<b>Roots and Naming.</b>
Where the Class 1 root is used,
this Subscriber may be a new Member
including one with zero points.
Where the Name is not provided,
this indicates it is not available.
In these circumstances,
reliance is not defined,
and Relying parties should take more care.
See Table 4.5.2.

</center>
<p>
<b>Software Agent.</b>
When relying on a certificate, relying parties should
note that your software is responsible for the way it
shows you the information in a certificate.
If your software agent hides parts of the information,
your sole remedy may be to choose another software agent.
</p>
<p>
<b>Malware.</b>
When relying on a certificate, relying parties should
note that platforms that are vulnerable to viruses or
trojans or other weaknesses may not process any certificates
properly and may give deceptive or fraudulent results.
It is your responsibility to ensure you are using a platform
that is secured according to the needs of the application.
</p>
<h5>4.5.2.e When something goes wrong </h5>
<p>
In the event that an issue arises out of the Member's reliance,
her sole avenue is <b>to file dispute under DRP</b>.
See <a href="#p9.13">§9.13</a>.
<!-- DRC_A§A.4.d -->
For this purpose, the certificate (and other evidence) should be preserved.
</p>
<p>
<b>Which person?</b>
Members may install certificates for other individuals or in servers,
but the Member to whom the certificate is issued
remains the responsible person.
E.g., under Organisation Assurance, an organisation is issued
a certificate for the use by individuals
or servers within that organisation,
but the Organisation is the responsible person.
</p>
<!-- <a href="http://xkcd.com/424/"> <img align="right" src="http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/security_holes.png"> </a> -->
<p>
<b>Software Agent.</b>
If a Member is relying on a CAcert root embedded in
the software as supplied by a vendor,
the risks, liabilities and obligations of the Member
do not automatically transfer to the vendor.
</p>
<h3><a name="p4.6" id="p4.6">4.6. Certificate renewal</a></h3>

<h4><a name="p6.2.1" id="p6.2.1">6.2.1. Cryptographic module standards and controls</a></h4>
<p>
SubRoot keys are stored on a single machine which acts
as a Cryptographic Module, or <i>signing server</i>.
It operates a single daemon for signing only.
The signing server has these security features:
</p>
<ul><li>
It is connected only by one
dedicated (serial USB) link
to the online account server.
It is not connected to the network,
nor to any internal LAN (ethernet),
nor to a console switch.
</li><li>
The protocol over the dedicated link is a custom, simple
request protocol that only handles certificate signing requests.
</li><li>
The daemon is designed not to reveal the key.
</li><li>
The daemon incorporates a dead-man switch that monitors
the one webserver machine that requests access.
</li><li>
The daemon shuts down if a bad request is detected.
</li><li>
The daemon resides on an encrypted partition.
</li><li>
The signing server can only be (re)started with direct
systems administration access.

<h4><a name="p6.3.1" id="p6.3.1">6.3.1. Public key archival</a></h4>
<p>
Subscriber certificates, including public keys,
are stored in the database backing the online system.
They are not made available in a public- or subscriber-accessible
archive, see §2.
They are backed-up by CAcert's normal backup procedure,
but their availability is a subscriber responsibility.
</p>
<h4><a name="p6.3.2" id="p6.3.2">6.3.2. Certificate operational periods and key pair usage periods</a></h4>
<p>
The operational period of a certificate and its key pair
depends on the Assurance status of the Member,
see <a href="#p1.4.5">§1.4.5</a> and Assurance Policy (<a href="http://www.cacert.org/policy/AssurancePolicy.php">COD13</a>).
</p>
<p>
The CAcert (top-level) Root certificate
has a 30 year expiry.
SubRoots have 10 years, and are to be rolled over more quickly.
The keysize of the root certificates are chosen
in order to ensure an optimum security to CAcert
Members based on current recommendations from the
<a href="http://www.keylength.com/">cryptographic community</a>
and maximum limits in generally available software.

<h2><a name="p8" id="p8">8. COMPLIANCE AUDIT AND OTHER ASSESSMENTS</a></h2>
<p>
There are two major threads of assessment:
</p>
<ul><li>
<b>Systems Audit</b>.
Analyses the CA for business and operations security.
This is conducted in two phases: documents for compliance
with criteria, and operations for compliance with documentation.
</li><li>
<b>Code Audit</b>.
Analyses the source code.
This is conducted at two levels:
Security concepts at the web applications level,
and source code security and bugs review.
</li></ul>
<p>
See the Audit page at
<a href="http://wiki.cacert.org/wiki/Audit/">
wiki.cacert.org/wiki/Audit/</a>
for more information.
</p>
<h3><a name="p8.1" id="p8.1">8.1. Frequency or circumstances of assessment</a></h3>
<p>
The first audits started in late 2005,
and since then, assessments have been an
ongoing task.
Even when completed, they are expected to
be permanent features.
</p>
<ul><li>
<b>Systems Audit</b>.
<span class="q">
The first phase of the first audit is nearing completion.
The second phase starts in earnest when documentation is in
effect, at lease as DRAFT under PoP.
As the second phase is dependent on

be in effect as DRAFT at least
before the first audit is completed.
Only prior and completed audits can be reported here.

<h3><a name="p8.2" id="p8.2">8.2. Identity/qualifications of assessor</a></h3>
<p>
<b>Systems Auditors.</b>
CAcert uses business systems auditors with broad experience
across the full range of business, information systems
and security fields.
In selecting a business systems auditor, CAcert looks for
experience that includes but is not limited to
cryptography, PKI, governance, auditing,
compliance and regulatory environments,
business strategy, software engineering,
networks, law (including multijurisdictional issues),
identity systems, fraud, IT management.

See Security Policy, sections 7, 9.1.
</p>
<h3><a name="p8.3" id="p8.3">8.3. Assessor's relationship to assessed entity</a></h3>
<p>
Specific internal restrictions on audit personnel:
</p>
<ul><li>
Must be Assured by CAcert Assurers
and must be background checked.
</li><li>
Must not have been active in any (other) role in CAcert.
Specifically, must not be an Assurer, a member of the association,
or in any other defined role or office.
</li><li>
Although the Auditor may be expected to undertake various
of the activities (Assurance, Training)
during the process of the audit, any results are frozen
until resignation as auditor is effected.
</li><li>
The Auditor is required to declare to CAcert all
potential conflicts of interest on an ongoing basis.
</li></ul>
<p>
Specific external restrictions on audit personnel:
</p>
<ul><li>
Should have a verifiable and lengthy history in
user privacy and user security.
</li><li>
Must not have worked for a competitive organisation.
</li><li>
Must not have worked for national security, intelligence,
LEO or similar agencies.
</li></ul>
<p>
An Auditor may convene an audit team.
The same restrictions apply in general
to all members of the team, but may be varied.
Any deviations must be documented and approved
by the CAcert Inc. Board.
</p>
<h3><a name="p8.4" id="p8.4">8.4. Topics covered by assessment</a></h3>
<p>
Systems Audits are generally conducted to criteria.
CAcert requires that the criteria are open:
</p>
<ul><li>
Published.
The criteria must be reviewable by all interested parties.
</li><li>
Understandable.
They should be understandable, in that they provide the
sufficient information in a readable form for interested
parties to follow the gist and importance.
(Arcane security criteria may stretch this requirement.)
</li><li>
Complete.
There must be sufficent background information that the
whole story is there. Especially, criteria that refer
to undocumented practices or conventions deliberately
kept secret must be avoided.
</li><li>
Applicable. The criteria should relate directly
and unambiguously to a need of the identified interested parties
(Members, Relying Parties, Subscribers, Assurers).
</li></ul>
<p>
See
<a href="http://rossde.com/CA_review/">DRC</a>
for the current criteria.
If Auditor determines that a criteria fails to
follow the meet the above requirements, then the criteria
should be reworked to conform, or should be dropped
(both with explanatory notes).
</p>
<h3><a name="p8.5" id="p8.5">8.5. Actions taken as a result of deficiency</a></h3>
<p>
See the current
<a href="http://wiki.cacert.org/wiki/Audit/Done">Audit Done list</a>
for work completed, and
<a href="http://wiki.cacert.org/wiki/AuditToDo">Audit Todo list</a>
for work in progress.
</p>
<p>
Auditor may issue directives instructing changes,
where essential to audit success or other extreme
situations.
Directives should be grounded on criteria,
on established minimum or safe practices,
or clearly described logic.
Adequate discussion with Community
(e.g., CAcert Inc. Board and with Policy Group)
should precede any directive.
They should be presented to the same standard
as the criteria, above.
</p>
<p>
The

<h3><a name="p8.6" id="p8.6">8.6. Communication of results</a></h3>
<p>
Current and past Audit information is available at
<a href="http://wiki.cacert.org/wiki/Audit/">wiki.CAcert.org/wiki/Audit/</a>.
CAcert runs an open disclosure policy and
Audit is no exception.
</p>
<p>
This CPS and other documents are subject to
the process in Policy on Policy (<a href="http://www.cacert.org/policy/PolicyOnPolicy.php">COD1</a>).

Member's Date of Birth and "Lost Password" questions are treated as fully private.
</p>
<h4><a name="p9.4.3" id="p9.4.3">9.4.3. Information not deemed private</a></h4>
<p>
To the extent that information is put into an issued certificate,

as it is expected to be published by the Member as part of routine use of
the certificate.
Such information generally includes
Names, domains, email addresses, and certificate serial numbers.
</p>
<p>
Under Assurance Policy
(<a href="http://www.cacert.org/policy/AssurancePolicy.php">COD13</a>)
the Member's status (as Assured, Assurer, etc) is available
to other Members.
</p>
<p>
Information placed in forums outside the online system
(wiki, blogs, policies, etc) is not deemed private, and is

<p>
CAcert is committed to the philosophy of
an open and free Internet,
broadly as encapsulated by open and free source.
However, due to the strict control provisions
imposed by the audit criteria (CCS),
and the general environment and role of CAs,
and the commitment to security of Members,
some deviations are necessary.

<h3><a name="p9.13" id="p9.13">9.13. Dispute resolution provisions</a></h3>
<p>
CAcert provides a forum and facility for any Member
or other related party to file a dispute.
</p>
<ul><li>
The CAcert
Dispute Resolution Policy
(<a href="http://www.cacert.org/policy/DisputeResolutionPolicy.php">COD7</a>)
includes rules for dispute resolution.
</li><li>
Filing is done via email to
< support AT cacert DOT org >
</li></ul>
<p>
Members agree to file all disputes through CAcert's
forum for dispute resolution.
The rules include specific provisions to assist
non-Members, etc, to file dispute in this forum.
</p>
<h3><a name="p9.14" id="p9.14">9.14. Governing law</a></h3>
<p>
The governing law is that of New South Wales, Australia.
Disputes are generally heard before the Arbitrator
under this law.
Exceptionally, the Arbitrator may elect to apply the
law of the parties and events, where in common,
but this is unlikely because it may create results
that are at odds with the Community.
</p>
<h3><a name="p9.15" id="p9.15">9.15. Compliance with Applicable Law</a></h3>
<h3><a name="p9.15.1" id="p9.15.1">9.15.1 Digital Signature Law</a></h3>
<p>
The Commonwealth and States of Australia have passed
various Electronic Transactions Acts that speak to
digital signatures. In summary, these acts follow
the "technology neutral" model and permit but do not
regulate the use of digital signatures.
</p>
<p>
This especially means that the signatures created by
certificates issued by CAcert are not in and of themselves
legally binding human signatures, at least according to
the laws of Australia.
See <a href="#p1.4.3">§1.4.3</a>.
However, certificates may play a part in larger signing
applications. See <a href="#p1.4.1">§1.4.1</a> for "digital signing" certificates.
These applications may impose significant
obligations, risks and liabilities on the parties.
</p>
<h3><a name="p9.15.2" id="p9.15.2">9.15.2 Privacy Law</a></h3>
<p>
See the Privacy Policy
(<a href="PrivacyPolicy.html">COD5</a>).
</p>
<h3><a name="p9.15.3" id="p9.15.3">9.15.3 Legal Process from External Forums</a></h3>
<p>
CAcert will provide information about
its Members only under legal subpoena or
equivalent process
from a court of competent jurisdiction.
Any requests made by legal subpoena are
treated as under the Dispute Resolution Policy
See
<a href="#p9.13">§9.13</a>
and
<a href="http://www.cacert.org/policy/DisputeResolutionPolicy.php">COD7</a>.
That is, all requests are treated as disputes,
as only a duly empanelled Arbitrator has the
authorisation and authority to rule on the
such requests.
<p>
<p>
A subpoena should
include sufficient legal basis to support
an Arbitrator in ruling that information
be released pursuant to the filing,
including the names of claimants in any civil case
and an indication as to whether the claimants are
Members or not
(and are therefore subject to Dispute Resolution Policy).

<h3><a name="p9.16" id="p9.16">9.16. Miscellaneous provisions</a></h3>
<h4><a name="p9.16.1" id="p9.16.1">9.16.1. Entire agreement</a></h4>

This agreement also incorporates other key
documents, being this CPS, DRP and PP.
