Title : Internet X.509 Public Key Infrastructure PKI Disaster Recovery and Key Rollover
Author(s) : D. Pinkas, J. Kazin
Filename : draft-pinkas-pkix-pki-dr-kr-00.txt
Pages : 25

This document presents a framework to assist the writers of policy
or practice statements and the designers of a Public Key
Infrastructure to prepare disaster recovery plans in case of a
private key-compromise or a private key-loss. This may happen to
end-entity keys, Certification Authorities, Revocation Authorities,
Attribute Authorities, or Time-Stamping Authorities. Since
certificates have finite validity, CA key-rollover should be
planned in advance.
In addition, denial of service attacks on Repositories holding
CRLs has also to be considered.
This framework provides a comprehensive list of potential key-
compromise or key-loss conditions that, in the opinion of the
authors, should be addressed so that it is possible to quickly
recover from exceptional situations.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
