SOL-11.1-090115 - The operating system must employ PKI solutions at workstations, servers, or mobile computing devices on the network to create, manage, distribute, use, store, and revoke digital certificates.

Information

Without the use of PKI systems to manage digital certificates, the operating system or other system components may be unable to securely communicate on a network or reliably verify the identity of a user via digital signatures.

NOTE: Nessus has not performed this check. Please review the benchmark to ensure target compliance.

Solution

The operator will ensure that a DoD approved PKI software is installed and operating continuously.
