PKI is meaningless unless the credentials presented are authenticated for revocation status. Not only the lead entry, but the root authorities as well. You would be surprised at the number of root authorities that do not have a CRLdp embedded in its certificate, the CRLdp is coded incorrectly or worse yet, points to a distribution point that does not exist. Many servers that have a certificate installed are expired and only surface when someone uses software that checks the validity of the certificate.
