Explanation:

: Here is the information contained in the CCSE official courseware: “When a user leaves an
organization, or when a key is compromised, the certificate must be revoked. The certification
authority does this by issuing and distributing a Certificate Revocation List (CRL). Before
accepting a certificate, the CRL should be checked to confirm that the certificate has not been
revoked. The CRL distribution point is usually a Web Server. When a certificate appears in a CRL
it is no longer valid, it has been revoked. See Page 8.9 of CCSE NG Official Courseware. (VPN1-FW1 Management II NG FP-1).
