    I have a Root and a subordinate stnadalone CA in my enterprise. I also have
    a 3rd subordinate which is issuing certificates from the 2nd subordinate
    which has been setup as an Enterpise subordinate. I was told that the Root
    and the 1st subordinate where setup as Standalone for security reasons but no
    one can tell me those reaosns. Can anyone tell me the difference in security
    between these.
