CABF: End of Probationary Member status period for Cybertrust Japan

[Dimitris Zacharopoulos (HARICA)]

Dear Members,

Cybertrust Japan was accepted in the SCWG on February 27, 2025 as a Certificate Issuer starting a 6-month Probationary Member status period. During this period, Cybertrust participated in more than 30% of SCWG teleconferences and in least one face-to-face meeting, successfully completing the mandatory probationary period and meeting all requirements specified in section 4(d) of the SCWG Charter which states the following:

(d) There is a mandatory six-month probationary period during which any representative of an Applicant must attend at least 30% of all SCWG teleconferences (not counting subcommittee meetings) and at least one SCWG face-to-face meeting (either physically or virtually). After successful completion of the mandatory probationary period and meeting all requirements of the Bylaws and section 3(a) or 3(b), an Applicant may become a Voting Member, if the SCWG determines by consensus among the Members during a Meeting or Teleconference, or upon the request of any Member that challenges the Applicant's adherence to all of the requirements of the Forum's Code of Conduct and section 3(a) or 3(b) of this Charter, by a Ballot among the Members. Acceptance by consensus shall be determined, or a Ballot of the Members shall be held, as soon as the Applicant indicates that it has presented all information required and has responded to all follow-up questions from the SCWG and the Applicant has complied with the requirements of Section 5.5 of the CA/Browser Forum Bylaws.

We will discuss updating their status to a Voting Member at the next scheduled Teleconference.


Thank you,
Dimitris.
