I am not familiar with the DOD in question, but a server, such as a web server, can
require a certificate before a session is established if they require client
authentication. Public web servers using ssl for instance generally do not require a
client certificate. If a client certificate is needed, the user will need to request
one from a trusted Certificate Authority. Certificate Authorities will need some sort
of credentials to issue a certificate in order to protect the integrity of PKI. ---
