AI Summary

The case involves PKIoverheid's failure to conduct a Baseline Requirements (BR) audit for certain subordinate CAs that are technically capable of issuing TLS certificates, which violates Mozilla's Root Store Policy. Kathleen Wilson from Mozilla reported the issue on October 3, 2019. In response, PKIoverheid acknowledged the problem and initiated an investigation, committing to provide an incident report. The CA outlined a remediation plan, including revocation of certain certificates and migration to a new root CA. By March 2020, the affected root CA expired, and all related certificates were confirmed to have expired as well, resolving the compliance issue.
