I'm sorry that I misunderstood that.
Sorry, I fear I've confused you even further. Those two intermediate CAs will issue only EV Certificates. The naming convention is correct to imply that this is the case. > > This statement is correct, as long as you don't interpret "...there are > > two..." as "...there are only two and will only ever be two...". > > > > As it happens, we also have a further subordinate CA under COMODO > > Certification Authority, which we already use for issuing one of our > > brands of DV certificate. > > Are you issuing DV certificates from the intermediate CA certificates > mentioned above? No. Absolutely not. > Or are there other intermediate CA certificates > operating under this root besides the two mentioned above? Yes. To repeat what I said... "As it happens, we also have a further subordinate CA under COMODO Certification Authority, which we already use for issuing one of our brands of DV certificate. We also have plans to issue an IV/OV subordinate at some point. As before, I'll defer to Robin Alden to answer any CPS-related questions you may have about this. I apologize on behalf of Comodo if we have inadvertently omitted to draw your attention to some of this information sooner." > > I spoke to Robin Alden earlier today.
