I have been tying to find out if there are any recommendations about the various intervals in a keys life, e.g. how long between publication and activation? Ditto for activation to inactivation? Ditto for inactivation to deletion?
I Googled it, but the info out there is not very helpful; Microsoft; 7 - 7300 days (recommends 755 days) for KSK and 7 to 1875 days (recommends 90 days) for ZSK. ENISA 365-1460 days (recommends 1 yr) KSK, 1 yr for ZSK NIST 1 - 2 yrs for KSK, 1 - 3 m for ZSK. Plus a lot of other recommendations ranging from 1 to 5yrs for KSK and from 14 days to 2 yrs for ZSK.
I am currently think along the lines of 90 days from Creation to Deletion with active life of 30 days for ZSKs. 420 days from Creation to Deletion with an active life of 360 days for KSKs. Are these reasonable?
Plus, what are the "names" for the various intervals, there does not seem to be a consistent naming convention, the various points in the timeline seem to have fairly standard names but not intervals. What is the period from creation to publication called? ditto publication to activation, activation to inactivation, inactivation to deletion?
