RESOLVED FIXED HARICA
AI Summary

HARICA identified 33 non-expired TLS certificates issued with invalid policy identifiers not included in the Issuing CA's certificatePolicies extension. These certificates were from a legacy CA that ceased operations in May 2019. Following internal checks and discussions within the CA/B Forum, HARICA confirmed the non-compliance and scheduled revocation of the affected certificates within five days. The certificates were ultimately revoked on March 24, 2021, after a thorough investigation and outreach to affected subscribers.
