AI Summary

Entrust identified a compliance issue involving three S/MIME certificates where the jurisdiction of the organization in the Organization Identifier field did not match the country field in the subject name. This discrepancy was discovered through post-issuance linting, leading to the determination that the certificates were mis-issued and required revocation. The CA took prompt action, revoking the certificates within the required 5-day timeframe. A full incident report was prepared, detailing the root cause analysis and corrective actions, including updates to the verification process and ongoing training for personnel. All action items have been completed, and Entrust has requested closure of the incident.
