Popis: | Processing of a set of multi-level digital certificates, particularly path construction and validation, can be excessively resource consuming, and even impractical in some cases. This article introduces classifications of certificate sets as “minimal”, “surplus”, and “deficient” and explains the new paradigm of a “recursive certificate” structure designed to provide the equivalent of a “minimal set” of conventional certificates containing only the necessary and sufficient information to minimize the effort to validate a certificate sequence, with a potential avoidance of duplication of validation previously handled by related Certification Authorities. |
