Trusted Lists (ttaad2557m000)

Trusted lists provide a mechanism to establish trust for legal purposes. A country can publish a trusted list at a known URL; this list contains all certificate authorities that are trusted by the country. The list itself is trusted because the list itself is also signed, using a trusted certificate. If you use the Refresh Trusted Lists (ttaad2257m000) session, the trusted lists are downloaded and a certificate store is created.
