Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To revoke a certificate and exclude other principalS based on a revocation list by a delegated revocation authority in a digital copyright management system. SOLUTION: A digital certificate identifies an entity having an authority to revoke the certificate delegated by an issuer. The certificate has at least one revocation condition associated with the possible revocation of the certificate. In order to authenticate the certificate, the identification of the delegated revocation authority, a location from which the revocation list is obtained, and a freshness requirement to be applied to the revocation list are determined from the certificate. It is then ensured that the revocation list obtained from the location is present, that the revocation list satisfies the freshness requirement, that the revocation list is promulgated by the delegated revocation authority identified in the certificate, and that the certificate is not identified in the revocation list as being revoked.
