Chunghwa Telecom: Postpone removal of ePKI Root CA's websites trust bit
RESOLVED
FIXED
Chunghwa Telecom
AI Summary
Chunghwa Telecom requested a postponement of the removal of the trust bit for its ePKI Root CA due to delays in transitioning to a new root CA, HiPKI RCA. The Taiwan Ministry of Digital Affairs (MODA) requested this delay to support the ongoing transition of government websites from the old CA to the new one. The transition involves multiple milestones, including contract signings and system integration tests, with a proposed timeline extending into 2025. Mozilla has agreed to postpone the trust bit removal until further notice, considering the impact on public services.
