GlobalSign Suspends Issuance of SSL Certificates

Joining the ranks of accepted submitters, realxmp writes "The BBC is reporting that GlobalSign has stopped issuing certificates because of yet another suspected CA security breach. This was in response to a post on the ComodoHacker paste bin, claiming that this and several other CA's have also been compromised." No word yet on whether they were actually compromised.

At some point

You have to wonder if these people are serious about their craft, or just phoning it in. If they are in the security business, you expect they'd at least make a half-assed attempt at securing THEIR OWN BUSINESS.

I guess publicly recognizing that a submitter has for the first time written a submission that meets Slashdot's criteria is a way to increase the likelihood that the submitter will submit news of similar quality in the future.
