| The operator will ensure that a DoD approved PKI system is installed, configured, and properly operating. Ask the operator to document the PKI software installation and configuration. If the operator is not able to provide a documented configuration for an installed PKI system or if the PKI system is not properly configured, maintained, or used, this is a finding. |
