Which form is signed by the subscriber in the centralized issuance process?

In the centralized issuance process of Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), the subscriber is required to sign the DD Form 2842. This form serves as an application for the issuance of a digital certificate, essentially verifying that the subscriber has provided the necessary identification and consent for their public key to be linked to their identity. By signing this form, the subscriber acknowledges their identity, agrees to the terms of use for the digital certificate, and ensures compliance with security policies.

The other options, while relevant in different contexts, do not specifically pertain to the signing process for digital certificate issuance. The Employee Verification Form is typically used for employment-related confirmations, the I-9 is a form used to verify an employee’s eligibility to work in the United States, and the Security Clearance Form is related to background checks for access to classified information. None of these forms engage with the specific requirements and implications of obtaining a digital certificate in the context of PKI.
