=== Who decides which CA certificates to include in Mozilla products? ===


For a CA's root certificate to be considered for inclusion in Mozilla products, the CA makes a formal request by filing a bug in [[CA:How_to_apply | Mozilla's Bugzilla system]]. Then the owners or peers of Mozilla's [[Module_Owners_Activities_Modules#CA_Certificates_Module| CA Certificates Module]] evaluate the information provided by the CA and conduct a public discussion in the mozilla.dev.security.policy forum regarding the request. After considering the information that the CA has presented and the recommendations of the Mozilla community, the module owners or peers determine if the root certificate should be included in Mozilla software products and which trust bits should be set on them.
