Add OISTE root certificates
The case involves a request from OISTE Foundation to include four new root CA certificates intended to replace existing hierarchies. The request was initiated by OISTE and included detailed information about the certificates. Public discussions regarding the inclusion began on June 30, 2025, and concluded on August 11, 2025. Following this, notifications were sent for pending approval, and the necessary tickets were opened to add the roots to NSS and enable EV for two of them. As of November 2025, OISTE has successfully enabled the new roots for Certificate Transparency (CT) logging and is in compliance with Mozilla's CT Policy.
