I have a pretty good understand of PKI, however, I'm not sure what would
be the solution for an enterprise that wishes to be a relying party but
not a CA. We don't want to be issuing certs. Right now, we don't want
anyone else to be issuing certs on our behalf. We just want to be able
to validate certificates. If its a level 3 cert and its from an
approved CA (or a subondinate of an approved CA) then we can be certain
of the user's identity and will let then attempt to access our system.
TIA
