User initialization consists of an entity initializing its cryptographic application (e.g., installing and initializing software or hardware). This involves the use or installation (see Section 8.1.4 ) of the initial keying material that may be obtained during user registration. Examples include the installation of a key at a CA, trust parameters, policies, trusted parties, and algorithm preferences.
