The CA/B Forum produces the **[Baseline Requirements](https://cabforum.org/baseline-requirements-documents/)** (BRs), a set of technical and procedural policies that all CAs must adhere to. These policies are determined through a [formal voting process](https://cabforum.org/ballots/) of browsers and CAs. The BRs are enforced through a combination of technical measures, standard third-party audits, and the overall community's attention to publicly visible certificates.

The Baseline Requirements only constrain CAs -- they do not constrain browser behavior. Since browser vendors ultimately decide which certificates their browser will trust, they are the enforcers and adjudicators of BR violations. If a CA is found to be in violation of the Baseline Requirements, a browser may penalize or inhibit that CA's ability to issue certificates that that browser will trust, up to and including expulsion from that browser's trust store.
