Certificates in the trust store must be issued/signed by an approved CA.
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>Use of self-signed certificates creates a lack of integrity and invalidates the certificate based authentication trust model. Certificates used by production systems must be issued/signed by a trusted Root CA and cannot be self-signed. For systems that communicate with industry partners, the DoD ECA program supports the issuance of DoD-approved certificates to industry partners. For information on the DoD ECA program, refer to the DoD PKI office.
