RESOLVED FIXED Izenpe S.A.
AI Summary

This problem was first reported on June 21, 2020, leading to an internal investigation. The CA took immediate action, organizing training for validation personnel and implementing a new web application to ensure accurate data entry. All affected certificates were revoked by July 22, 2020.
