Ballot SC-100: DNSSEC Clarification and Consolidation
--- Ballot Background ---
Discussion prior to, and at CA/Browser Forum Face to Face Meeting #67 in Houston, TX revealed that there was some lack of clarity regarding the DNSSEC validation requirements, particularly in the area of Remote Network Perspectives, as well as the fact that the DNSSEC validation requirements being somewhat scattered throughout Section 3.2.2 made it more difficult to pin down than it could be if all in one place.
--- Ballot Summary ---
Move all DNSSEC validation requirements to the new Section 4.2.2.2.
Reorganize the structure somewhat for easier reading and reduction of repetition.
Clarify that DNSSEC validation MAY be performed on Remote Network Perspectives, but is REQUIRED only on the Primary Network Perspective.
This ballot does not currently have an effective date, as the intent is merely to address clarity and there is no intention to modify the existing requirements
This ballot is proposed by Rich Smith (DigiCert) and endorsed by Trev Ponds-White (Amazon) and Scott Rea (eMudhra)
--- Motion Begins ---
Modify the "Baseline Requirements for the Issuance and Management of Publicly-Trusted Server Certificates", based on Version 2.2.8, per the following redline:
