A cloud-based system having a secure database of certificate information and associated methods are provided. The system and methods may be used to supplement or replace traditional OCSP processing systems. Responses to OCSP requests are digitally signed and cached in a cloud database server remote from the requester. Other servers in the cloud may access the cached OCSP responses from the database server, rather than the originating certificate authority. Thus, the work traditionally done by the certificate authority is moved to the cloud, which eliminates a single point of failure and improves the resources available to perform transactional processing.
