NAC720.460. Confirmation of identity of prospective subscriber.

     1. When carrying out the provisions of NAC 720.450 requiring a certification authority to confirm that a prospective subscriber is the person to be identified in a requested certificate, a certification authority shall make such an inquiry into the identity of the prospective subscriber as is reasonable based upon:

     (a) Any representations the certification authority will make regarding the reliability of the certificate, including any recommended limit of reliance;

     (b) Any recommendations the certification authority will make regarding the use or application of the certificate; and

     (c) Whether the certificate will be a transactional certificate.

     2. If the prospective subscriber appears before the certification authority and presents a current:

     (a) Identifying document issued by or under the authority of the United States or another country; or

     (b) Driver’s license or other identifying document issued by a state of the United States,

Ê which is reviewed and accepted by a notary public or any operative personnel of the certification authority, there is a rebuttable presumption that the certification authority has confirmed that the prospective subscriber is the person to be identified in the requested certificate.
