WN25-DC-000300 - Windows Server 2025 PKI certificates associated with user accounts must be issued by a DOD PKI or an approved External Certificate Authority (ECA).

Information

A PKI implementation depends on the practices established by the Certificate Authority (CA) to ensure the implementation is secure. Without proper practices, the certificates issued by a CA have limited value in authentication functions.

Satisfies: SRG-OS-000066-GPOS-00034, SRG-OS-000403-GPOS-00182

Solution

Map user accounts to PKI certificates using the appropriate UPN for the network. Refer to the PKE documentation for details.
