The system has a set of certification authorities linked by unidirectional connections, where each connection is materialized by a digital certificate that one authority is authorized to deliver. The certificate validation is executed by the authoritys certification. The set has a sub-set with certification authorities (1001-100N) linked such that each authority is linked to the other by a unidirectional connection. An independent claim is also included for a process of validation of digital certificates.
