Which of the following is NOT a responsibility of a Trusted Agent.

• A. Verifying the identity of PKI Sponsors
• B. Verifying the accuracy of information to be included in certificates
• C. Forwarding any auditable information required by the RA Officer
• D. Providing training sessions for new RA Officers

Answer: (D)

The main idea is understanding what a Trusted Agent does within the PKI issuance process. Trusted Agents are hands-on verifiers and data handlers who support certificate issuance by ensuring the right people are involved and the information is accurate. Verifying the identity of PKI Sponsors and the accuracy of certificate information are core tasks because they prevent misissuance and help maintain trust in the system. Forwarding auditable information required by the RA Officer keeps the process compliant and transparent.

Training sessions for new RA Officers aren’t part of a Trusted Agent’s duties. Training responsibilities typically lie with supervisors or a designated training function, focusing on onboarding and policy compliance rather than day-to-day verification and data handling.
