QuoVadis: Multiple unreported misissuances in 2018

RESOLVED FIXED DarkMatter LLC
AI Summary

In 2018, QuoVadis identified multiple misissuances of SSL certificates that were not reported at the time. The issues were discovered through post-issuance linting, leading to the revocation of problematic certificates. QuoVadis has since implemented pre-issuance linting to prevent future occurrences and has committed to greater transparency regarding certificate management. The case highlights the importance of timely reporting and remediation of certificate errors.
