<modulesummary>API for a SSL/TLS CRL (Certificate Revocation List) cache.</modulesummary>
<description>
<p>
- When SSL/TLS performs certificate path validation according to
- <url href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc5280.txt">RFC 5280 </url> it should
- also perform CRL validation checks. To enable the CRL checks the application
- needs access to CRLs. A database of CRLs can be set up in many different ways.
- This module provides an API to integrate an arbitrary CRL cache with the erlang
- ssl application. It is also used by the application itself to provide a simple
- default implementation of a CRL cache.
