Using WebDAV for Improved Certificate Revocation and Publication
David Chadwick and Sean Anthony
In LNCS 4582. Public Key Infrastructure, Proceedings of 4th European PKI Workshop, Palma de Mallorca, Spain, pages 265-279, June 2007.Abstract
There are several problems associated with the current ways that certificates are published and revoked. This paper discusses these problems, and then proposes a solution based on the use of WebDAV, an enhancement to the HTTP protocol. The proposed solution provides instant certificate revocation, minimizes the processing costs of the certificate issuer and relying party, and eases the administrative burden of publishing certificates and certificate revocation lists (CRLs).
