Key revocation lists in some form? If it's gpg/OpenPGP, instruct users
to update from keyservers, one will notice when there're
incompatibilities between the key from CD and the one from the
keyserver, but one will also get the revocation from the keyserver. And
if one buys every CD, there's the time window of half a year even
without a key revocation infrastructure.

Kind regards,
