There's a reasonable chance that other CAs may have a similar situation, so
I think it's worth digging deeper into the root causes here.  Can you expand
on how this misunderstanding regarding the vulnerability scanner came to
pass?  What was the information on which you were relying when you came to
the understanding of the vulnerability scanner's capabilities?  Were you
misled by the vendor marketing or technical documentation, or was it an
Apple-internal assessment that came to an inaccurate conclution?  Or
"other"?
