A network is described. The network is a peer-to-peer network of nodes. The nodes maintain a distributed ledger. The distributed ledger includes a list of transactions. The list of transactions includes various transactions for maintaining a decentralized root store between the nodes. The decentralized root store includes a list of certificate authorities which are trusted by the nodes in the network. The root certificates may be retrieved from the distributed ledger, validated, and then used to access the certificate authorities.
