This document stands on the shoulders of giants and builds upon decades of work in TLS authentication, X.509, and Certificate Transparency. The authors would like to thank all those who have contributed over the history of these protocols.

The authors additionally thank Bob Beck, Corey Bonnell, Ryan Dickson, Aaron Gable, Nick Harper, Russ Housley, Dennis Jackson, Ilari Liusvaara, Sanketh Menda, Matt Mueller, Chris Patton, Michael Richardson, Ryan Sleevi, and Emily Stark for many valuable discussions and insights which led to this document, as well as feedback and contributions to the document itself. We wish to thank Mia Celeste in particular, whose implementation of an earlier draft revealed several pitfalls.
