[cabf_validation] Change to EV 9.2.7

[Rick Andrews]

Jeremy,

 

"This field MUST contain the address of the physical location of the
Subject's Place of Business." What does "the" mean here? Many businesses
have multiple physical locations. Should it be "a" instead? Should we
clarify that it doesn't have to be the physical location of the server(s)
hosting the certificate?

 

-Rick

I've created this as ballot 191. Do we have a second endorser? 

 

Ballot 191 - Clarify Place of Business Information Field Inclusion

 

The current EV Guidelines are not clear on what address information is
required in a certificate. This ballot clarifies the requirements.

A. Modify Section 9.2.7 as follows:

 

'''9.2.7. Subject Physical Address of Place of Business Field'''

City or town: subject:localityName (OID: 2.5.4.7)

2.5.4.8)

 

Country: subject:countryName (OID: 2.5.4.6)

Subject: [cabf_validation] Change to EV 9.2.7

 

To deal with the Require/Optional requirement or the Place of Business, I
propose a simple change which will make the EV Guidelines consistent with
the Baseline Requirements.

 

The EV Guidelines currently state:

9.2.7. Subject Physical Address of Place of Business Field

Certificate fields:

Number and street: subject:streetAddress (OID: 2.5.4.9)

City or town: subject:localityName (OID: 2.5.4.7) 

State or province (where applicable): subject:stateOrProvinceName (OID:
2.5.4.8)

Country: subject:countryName (OID: 2.5.4.6)

Postal code: subject:postalCode (OID: 2.5.4.17)

Required/Optional: City, state, and country - Required; Street and postal
code - Optional

Contents: This field MUST contain the address of the physical location of
the Subject's Place of Business.

 

To address the Required/Optional issue, I propose the following change.

9.2.7. Subject Physical Address of Place of Business Field

Certificate fields:

Number and street: subject:streetAddress (OID: 2.5.4.9)

City or town: subject:localityName (OID: 2.5.4.7) 

State or province (where applicable): subject:stateOrProvinceName (OID:
2.5.4.8)

Country: subject:countryName (OID: 2.5.4.6)

Postal code: subject:postalCode (OID: 2.5.4.17)

Required/Optional: As stated in Section 7.1.4.2.2 d, e, f, g and h of the
Baseline Requirements

Contents: This field MUST contain the address of the physical location of
the Subject's Place of Business.
