MiniCRL Model

HID Global also offers an alternate model designed to address environments with limited bandwidth. In this case, Validation Authority can generate OCSP responses in MiniCRL format (HID Global proprietary format), a compressed data format.

Additional Validation Authorities, referred to as "Tactical Validation Authorities" (TVAs), can be deployed in the field, and import these MiniCRLs, in order to provide standard OCSP responses to the Validation Responders.

This model is well suited for large distributed environments with limited bandwidth.
