Certificate hierarchy

Root CAs and their intermediate CAs

Root CA 1 and Root CA 2 are independent, self-signed trust anchors. An additional certificate cross-signs Root CA 2 through Root CA 1. Each root signs its own intermediate CAs.

Certificate issuance

Request certificates

The public request flows are being prepared and will be released step by step.

Planned

TLS certificates via ACME

TLS certificates will be requested through ACME. The public ACME endpoint is currently in development.

Planned

Other certificate types

Request flows for S/MIME, client, code-signing and document-signing certificates are planned.

Installation and request guides will later be published in the Kitsos Docs.

Certificate Transparency

Kitsos Onyx

Kitsos Onyx records certificates issued under the Kitsos roots in separate time-based shards. The explorer provides public search and inspection.
