Hello, everyone
My name is Haiguang Wang from Huawei. I am interested in the networking and security protocols research. I have attended IETF meeting since year 2017 and have followed the work in ACME group for sometime. Last year we have come across a research paper "A Blockchain-based Method for Decentralizing the ACME Protocol to Enhance Trust in PKI". Following is the information of the paper: E. F. Kfoury, D. Khoury, A. AlSabeh, J. Gomez, J. Crichigno and E. Bou-Harb, "A Blockchain-based Method for Decentralizing the ACME Protocol to Enhance Trust in PKI," 2020 43rd International Conference on Telecommunications and Signal Processing (TSP), Milan, Italy, 2020, pp. 461-465, doi: 10.1109/TSP49548.2020.9163555. We have studied the scheme for sometime but not sure whether it is a good direction for ACME or not. The scheme implements the ACME in smart contract and make the whole procedure of certificate more transparent, not only in CT log, but also in the certificate issuing and management. We would like to hear comments from the experts in this group. Best regards. Haiguang Wang Huawei International Pte. Ltd.
