DigiCert and other CA's need to write in their terms that failure to follow the policies and revocation timelines can/will result in termination of the contract. Alegeus should have been dropped as a customer as soon as the incident was resolved and refused further products/renewals.
Use of a TRO protects you short term, but results in having to migrate to a new CA medium term. You can't stop them from using TRO's but you can make it not worth it.
- HelloNurse 2y agoIs the CA allowed to stipulate that the customer (before being dropped) needs to pay a significant sum for, say, "expenses" if they resort to this kind of TRO?
- hmmm-i-wonder 2y agoPossibly, I'm not sure if there is precedent for charging a company for taking valid legal actions, only vexatious in contract law. Probably depends on the legal jurisdiction and courts.
