An organization reports slow page loads because every user's browser sends a separate request to a third-party repository for certificate verification. Which approach includes the status with the certificate so users do not have to connect to an external source?
The method that appends a signed status confirmation to the certificate allows browsers to validate it without reaching a separate server. This improves performance by eliminating extra lookups. Secure renegotiation involves session parameters, client certificate authentication focuses on validating user certificates, and a revocation list still requires periodic downloads. By bundling the current status into the initial communication, users avoid a separate validation query and ensure timely checks. This process is known as Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) stapling.
