Where 6960 fits
Why 6960 is special
It lets a browser ask whether a certificate has been revoked, and its privacy cost is that the certificate authority learns which sites you visit.
Same number, different meanings
How 6960 is understood across different contexts — never implying one meaning because of another.
- Mathematics
It lets a browser ask whether a certificate has been revoked, and its privacy cost is that the certificate authority learns which sites you visit.
- Technology & computing
RFC 6960 specifies OCSP for real-time certificate status queries. OCSP stapling was introduced so the server rather than the client fetches the response, removing the direct disclosure.
- Science
NGC 6960 is the western portion of the Cygnus Loop supernova remnant, containing the filament known as the Witch's Broom.
