    DigiNotar CA revoked

    According to multiple blog posts, Google, Mozilla and Microsoft have already banned the DigiNotar Certificate Authority in their browsers. This preemptive move comes as a direct response to the mess that DigiNotar created by issuing over 200 rogue certificates for legitimate web sites and services — see a complete list of the affected sites and services.

    I thought it was interesting, dont know if anyone has heard about it.

    Yep just read an article earlier this morning. Pretty crazy. On one hand this will raise even more security awareness but on the other, trust with CA's is going to plummet I think. A little ironic as their site offers Internet Trust Services..
