Organization PKI Notifies and Takes Action on Identified Compliance Discrepancies, v1.0

Addresses the requirement for organizations to send notice and take action on identified PKI compliance discrepancies.
NOTE:If an assessment step references organization-defined elements (E.g. <organization-defined personnel or roles>, <organization-defined frequency>, etc.), corresponding citations/excerpts must be provided to confirm that the organization has established and documented these values and that they apply as referenced in the conformance criteria.

Similarly, if a "Selection" among multiple options (e.g. [Selection (one or more): as needed; ]) is specified, evidence must be provided to establish that the option(s) implemented by the organization have been defined and documented.

The assessment step shall not be marked as satisfied without this evidence.

Organization PKI Notifies and Takes Action on Identified Compliance Discrepancies (OrganizationPKINotifiesandTakesActiononIdentifiedComplianceDiscrepancies)
When a PKI compliance auditor finds a discrepancy between how the Organization CA is designed or is being operated or maintained, and the requirements of the Organization CP, any applicable MOAs, or the applicable CPS, does the Organization PKI determine what further notifications or actions are necessary to meet the requirements of the Organization CP, CPS, and any relevant MOA provisions, and take such actions without delay?

If conformance criteria reference organization-defined elements (e.g. <organization-defined personnel or roles>, <organization-defined frequency>, etc.), these values must be defined and documented by the organization.

Similarly, if the criteria specify a "Selection" among multiple options (e.g. [Selection (one or more): as needed; ]), the option(s) implemented by the organization must also be defined and documented.
