The only Symantec RAs capable of authorizing and issuing publicly trusted SSL/TLS certificates are: CrossCert, Certisign, Certsuperior and Certisur. Symantec continues to maintain a partner program for non-TLS certificates. E-Sign SA and MSC Trustgate are amongst these partners.

Questioning continues to ascertain how these RAs are prevented from issuing TLS certificates.
