NAME
     ocspd -- OCSP and CRL Daemon

SYNOPSIS
     ocspd

DESCRIPTION
     ocspd performs caching and network fetching of Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs) and Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) responses.
     It is used by Security.framework during certificate verification. Security.framework communicates with ocspd via a private RPC interface.
     When Security.framework determines that a CRL is needed, or that it needs to perform an OCSP transaction, it performs an RPC to ocspd which
     then examines its cache to see if the appropriate CRL or OCSP response exists and is still valid. If so, that entity is returned to Secu-
     rity.framework. If no entry is found in cache, ocspd obtains it from the network, saving the result in cache before returning it to Secu-
     rity.framework.

     This command is not intended to be invoked directly.
