Assessment Title
Rule Text
The application must, for public key-based authentication, implement a local cache of revocation data to support path discovery and validation.
Description
Discussion Text
Public key cryptography is a valid authentication mechanism for individuals, machines, and devices. For Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) solutions, status information for certification paths includes certificate revocation lists or certificate status protocol responses. For personal identity verification (PIV) cards, certificate validation involves the construction and verification of a certification path to the Common Policy Root trust anchor, which includes certificate policy processing. Implementing a local cache of revocation data to support path discovery and validation also supports system availability in situations where organizations are unable to access revocation information via the network.
Online certificate status protocol (OCSP) is preferred over certificate revocation lists (CRLs). If OCSP is used this requirement is not applicable.
