nCode Solutions, a division of GNFC (http://www.ncodesolutions.com/) http://cca.gov.in/rw/pages/licensed_ca_gnfc.en.do Organization Type: State/Semi-Government Customer Base: Government, Private, Public CPS: https://www.ncodesolutions.com/repository/CPS-ver4.pdf Details: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=436982 This is a sub-CA of the India CCA root certificate. CCA submitted a request for inclusion of the root certificate in bug #557167. Upon reviewing the request I found that the hierarchy is very large: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=557167#c15 The approach that we are going to take with this CA hierarchy is as follows. 1) There will be a separate bug for each of the 7 intermediate CAs to be separately evaluated for inclusion as a trust anchor in NSS. 2) After all 7 of the intermediate CAs have been approved/included, then I will proceed with the process of evaluating the CCA root certificate for inclusion in NSS. 3) If the CCA root certificate is approved for inclusion in NSS, then the 7 intermediate CAs will be removed from NSS at the same time that the CCA root is included.
If nCode wants to apply for root inclusion, then a representative of the CA will need to file a new bug as described here: https://wiki.mozilla.org/CA:How_to_apply#Creation_and_submission_of_the_root_CA_certificate_inclusion_request
