Sectigo: Failure to revoke within 24 hours
This case concerns Sectigo's failure to revoke certificates for the domain debigare.com within the required 24-hour timeframe after a request was made by the domain owner. The request was initially submitted on September 8, 2018, but the certificates were not fully revoked until September 13, 2018, resulting in a violation of the Baseline Requirements. Following the incident, Sectigo acknowledged the delay and provided an incident report detailing the timeline of events and their response. As a remediation step, Sectigo developed a self-service revocation portal to allow domain owners to revoke certificates more efficiently. The portal was released on August 18, 2019, with plans for further enhancements.
