Hi,

There are a small number of external CAs that have been signed by our root.
They are not part of a formal audit but our Director of Security does audit
and review their CPS'. 
There are no requirements for the external entities to undergo third party
audits unless we decide that it is necessary. We have the right to impose
this requirement in our contract with the external entities.

Best regards,
  Rolf
