Proceedings of the 2000 ACM workshops on Multimedia, 2000•dl.acm.orgDigital certificates form a basis that allows entities to trust each other. Due to different
constraints, a certificate is only valid within a specific period of time. Coming from several
threats, there are important reasons why its validity must be terminated sooner than
assigned and thus, the certificate needs to be revoked. This paper provides a classification
of revocation methods and gives an overview of the main methods like CRL, CRS, CRT, and

This paper provides a classification of revocation methods and gives an overview of the main methods like CRL, CRS, CRT, and OCSP. If and in which way a revocation method is suited must be analyzed in accordance to their purpose.
