CA-CA Interoperability

Overview The CA-CA Interoperability Project is one of several major work areas being conducted under the auspices of the PKI Forum Technical Work Group (TWG) during calendar year 2000/2001. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the issues associated with establishing interoperability between otherwise isolated PKI domains, and to provide recommendations for the way forward.

It is recognized that CA-CA Interoperbility is an area that is subject to some debate, and there are a number of different views that have yet to coalesce into a universally agreed position. Thus, the writers of this paper fully expect that some of the topics discussed herein might be controversial. It is also probable that some scenarios/options discussed herein will be appropriate in some contexts but not in others. It may therefore be unrealistic to expect one common approach will win out in favor of all others. Ultimately, the purpose of this paper is to stimulate discussion, eventually leading to a consolidated set of recommendations.
